Can uiopen open a file in its folder, without full path?

Hello, I need to submit an assignment, which includes a .m and .mdl file. I would like the filename.m to open the filename.mdl and run the simulation. For this i use uiopen('D:\filename.mdl',1), however as I submit it, there is no telling what path the teacher will have the fies in, so is there any way of making this open a file in the same folder as the .m file is itself?

So that I can add them in the same folder and open by just writing 'filename.mdl'. Doing this as the command is now doesn't work and it requires the full path.

Hi,

Have you found a solution? I have a similar problem. I don't want people to copy&paste the file to the "necessary" location. I need to open whereever the file is.

(it is an unknown format for MATLAB - UFF and UVN , which I defined in an .m file).

Yes, just leave off the folder part of the filename, and it will look for the file in the normal search path, which includes the "current folder".
