How can I use edit box(GUI) data in multiple .m files?

I have a GUI with some edit boxes and some buttons. I want every time that the user pushes the button to store the data of the edit box into a variable or an object that i can use it in every .m file of my project. I use this code

    text = get(handles.edit1,'string');
    set(handles.edit7,'string', text);

to handle the input into the GUI.m file.

Alexandros - consider using the save function to save your data (as MATLAB variables) to a file that can be easily loaded by your other m files.

thank you, i used file to store the user input, but i didn't used save. I just used fopen, fprintf to write and textscan to read..
