Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hallo everyone,

i want to create a user interface with application builder, set a Button in the interface and with a click on the button to open another Programm like Matlab (.m file) and run it.
i already how to build this user interface and how to add a button but just don't know how to realize the last step.

How could i do it? should i write a code or this function is already in the application builder?

tried with this code in a new method: (i want to open the model.m file with matlab)

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("MATLAB R2015a", "C:/Users/Desktop/model.m");

but always get the Error "Unhandled exception type IOException"
