Copying files from one folder to another using Matlab commands

[Dave]

Within my Matlab Current Directory I have arbitrary file:

Temp_txtfile.txt

I want to copy this file to another folder on my HD using a Matlab
script/function:

% Specify the directory to save the files to:
dir = uigetdir('C:\');

% The above command will open a dialog box to navigate to the
relevant folder and allow me to specify the save directory.

The following is a list of what I intend to achieve thereafter:

1) Use another dialog box to select the appropriate file to copy:

e.g

[textfile,pathname] = uigetfile('*.text','Select the Text file');

% I'm not sure if this is correct.

2) Copy the selected file.

3) Paste the selected file to the directory specified in 'dir'.

Thanks.
