pass array to gui in matlab

I want to pass an array to a gui and display each element of that array on axes...the elements are the filenames of images...I have written a piece of code...this is my xyz.m file from which i want to pass an array "result" to a gui result_image.m

result_image(result);

In opening_fn of the gui i wrote...

result = varargin{1};
handles.output = hObject;

% Update handles structure

guidata(hObject, handles);

%axes(handles.axes1);

%imshow(im2fn);

for jj = 1:length(result)

axes(handles.axesjj);

imshow(result(jj));

I am getting an error as str2func Invalid function name ''

I dunno what is '' here and also iam getting the error on line

   result_image(result);
