I have created a function to browse a file in a gui. Now I have another function which does some calculations with the variables in the browsed file. So how do I load that file's contents in the new function?

In your first function you pass the filename to the new function:
results = new_function(filename);
Then in new_function you read in the data and do something with it.
function results = new_function(filename)
data = importdata(filename); % of xlsread() or csvread() or readtable() or whatever...
% Now do something with data....
