How do I convert a file name into a string?
I have a file named MyFile_12-25-2018.xls
Im using the command copyfile to bring the file into my local folder in matlab but no sure how to now convert the file named I just copied into a string. I am really after just the date . I want to create it into a string and then truncate it down to just 12-25-2018 and then name it to a variable. Like date.

Matthew Isaman's "Answer" moved here:
copyfile('C:\Documents\MyFile_12-25-2018.xls')
The previous comment is not valid since I am not calling out the file directly. I'm using
copyfile('C:\Dcouments\')
This will copyfile the .xls file into my matlab local folder

Filename = 'MyFile_12-25-2018.xls'
name = strsplit(Filename, '_');
name = string(name{1,2});

And before that use
dinfo = dir('*.xls')
filenames = {dinfo.name}
to get a cell array of file names.
