Read input matrix inside a function

I have a numerical array 'drop' setup in my Matlab workspace.
I can read the array into an interactive Matlab script using the prompt:
F = input(' Enter the matrix name: ')
This works fine in a main script.
However, when I place this same command inside a supporting function file called by the main script, I get the following error message upon execution:
??? Error using ==> input Undefined function or variable 'drop'
Please help. Thank you. Tom

This is to be expected. Anything you type in in response to an input() call that does not use the 's' option, will be evaluated in the workspace of the function that called input().
You could type in your response to input as
evalin('caller','drop')

Is there an easier way?
I am writing interactive Matlab scripts that need to be user-friendly because they will be used by others. I am trying to write a function that will be called by several scripts for efficiency. The function needs to read in a numerical array.

It would be better if you were to state your requirements about which variables are to be located and the calling relationship between the function those variables are stored in, compared to the function that needs to do the reading.
In the meantime I would point out that if you were to use the 's' option of input() so that you read the response as a string, you could evalin('caller','who') in order to get the names of the variables known to the caller, and you could compare the input string to those variable names, and have your routine do the evalin('caller', InputString) if there was a match; if there was no match then evaluate the string to an array.

Oh... this seems to work:
FS = input(' Enter the matrix name: ','s');
F=evalin('caller',FS);
