hi all, this is a simple question and may seems silly.
Currently my table read used syntax :
data_table = readtable('C:\Users\blabla')
However, if i runat different laptop/pc i need to configure the path again.
Please help to suggest and simple code how to solve this. TQ

You can have the user select the file to process using the function uigetfile
[file,path] = uigetfile();
if isequal(file,0)
disp('User selected Cancel');
data_table = [];
else
data_table = readtable(fullfile(path,file));
end

You can just change the current folder in the ui as per the attached image, no need to set current folder in the code.
