How to open multiple text files and populating matrices with the data

1 vue (au cours des 30 derniers jours)
I have written the following codes to open a text file and populate a matrix with the data. It works fine.
fid=fopen('01_06_13hi.txt'); %Opens the file
allData =[]; %Creats a matrix to store all data
n = 0;
while feof(fid)== 0;
d1 = fgetl(fid); % reading the file line by line
if strfind(d1,'-NaN') %Overrules the 'Not a Number' value
else
n=n+1;
ind= find(d1(:)==':'); %finds ':' in the data string and storing in variable 'ind'
ind2 = find(d1(:)=='/'); %finds '/' in the data string and storing in variable 'ind2'
d1(ind) = ' '; %string data
d1(ind2) = ' '; %string data
d2 = str2num(d1); % converting the data from string to number
allData(n,:) = d2; %Storing data of d2
end
end
Now I have some 630 .txt files. I have tried to modify the the code as follows:
filesFolder = 'lo_hi1/';
allTextFiles = dir([filesFolder,'*.txt']);
numberOfTextFiles = numel(allTextFiles);
nameOfTextFiles = {allTextFiles.name};
allData =[];
n = 0;
for i=1:numberOfTextFiles
fileID=fopen(nameOfTextFiles{i});
while feof(fileID)== 0;
d1 = fgetl(fileID);
if strfind(d1,'-NaN')
else
n=n+1;
ind= find(d1(:)==':');
ind2 = find(d1(:)=='/');
d1(ind) = ' ';
d1(ind2) = ' ';
d2 = str2num(d1);
allData(n,:) = d2;
end
end
fclose(fileID); %closing the file
end
I expected it to work but unfortunately it is not working. The command window showed the following:
Error using feof Invalid file identifier. Use fopen to generate a valid file identifier.
Error in multifileload (line 15) while feof(fileID)== 0;
Can anyone help me out?

Well, what does "not working" mean, precisely? We don't have your data so can't run it and can't see your terminal from here, either...

Oh, sorry, I did not foresee the situation prevailing at your end. The command window showed the following:
Error using feof Invalid file identifier. Use fopen to generate a valid file identifier.
Error in multifileload (line 15) while feof(fileID)== 0;

fileID = fopen( fullfile(filesFolder, nameOfTextFiles{i}));

Thanks, it worked. I have 630 txt files. Can you suggest me easy way to store data in 630 different matrices?
