filename = 'myfilename.dat'
source = fullfile('mysourcepath',filename)
destiantion = fullfile('mydestinationpath',filename)
copyfile(source,destination)

Using

movefile('newfilename.dat','oldfilename.dat')

I'm getting the following error

Error using movefile

mv: cannon stat 'mydestinationpath/newfilename.dat': No such file or directory

[madhan ravi]

movefile('myfilename.dat','Marisabel.dat') 
       %   ^--your file renamed to --^

I also tried that and still got the error. However, I managed to rename it using copyfile again. Thanks anyway!
