Picking columns from different matrices with different variable names assigned to each column

Hello

I have generated 50 .dat files from a run; each of size 6-by-400 containing information for 6 different variables. The .dat files were saved as File1, File2, File3, File4 and so on. Now i need to load and pick the 6th row from each of these 50 files and assign them different variable names such as V1, V2, V3, V4, ... , V50.

I would really appreciate if someone can tell me how i can do this.

Thanks Sazzad

Reading the files is fine, but using those variable names is not good.
