I have been looking in your previous collections of Answers but have not found what I need for my situation. I will be creating an executable file of my script which can be run on any computure without the need of a Matlab license and will most likely reside on an aircraft where telemetry data collection occurs and multiple binary files are generated into multiple folders and subfolders which are named differently depending on flight and date. My script will convert these binary files into csv files but I don't know how to copy the csv files into the folder where my executable file will run from to read in data and perform data analysis. Can you please help with this question?

Why do you need to do this? Why not just provide the full filepath?
All MATLAB functions accept absolute/relative filepaths. Using the full filepath is much more efficient than duplicating your data files around the place or changing the current directory.

copyfile(source, destination) where source and destination can be full path of the file.
pwd() will get you the current folder.

From the doc of copyfile()
File or folder to copy, specified as a character vector or string scalar. To copy multiple files or folders, use wildcards (*).
Or see uigetfile(), uiputfile()
