Use get():

myVar = get(handleToEditBox, 'String');

Then you can save it to a mat file with save

save(matFullFileName, 'myVar');

that the other m-file can read in with load(matFullFileName).

To supplement the above answer:

Add str2num if it is a value, so you get the correct datatype.

myVar = str2num(get(handleToEditBox, 'String'));

If the file already exists, add the "-append" switch to the save statement

save(matFullFileName, 'myVar', '-append')

Hope that helps.

Hello CAM, I'm able to save the data... but though it have default filename, everytime a popup window is coming while saving the mat file... as in the below image how to avoid it??? Im using follwing code

uisave({'RsT','LsgsT','LmT','Vrat','Irat','frat','nrat','cosphi','Prat'},'AD_motor_data');

uisave always creates a User Interface. That is why it is called *UI*save. If you do not want the UI, then simply use save instead.
