				What does "automatically" mean? After a certain period of time? Would closing all figure windows solve your problem, or do you need to keep all non-messagebox figures open?

        This seemed to work for me
h=msgbox('Click OK');
close(h);
You can put the close() in a timer callback if you want to close it after a certain time. But check that h exists (see the FAQ for methods).  http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_share_data_between_callback_functions_in_my_GUI.28s.29.3F

        h=msgbox('Are you sure you want to delete this file?'); pause(2) close(h)
After 2 seconds your box will be closed. You can change the time to whatever you are intending to.

				Unlike using a timer, this pause method will lock up the program during that time so the user will not be able to interact with anything else. It will not even continue if the user clicks OK immediately - it will still have to wait for the pause to finish.
