How can I replace some symbolic values in a matrix?

Hello!
I have a (symbolic) matrix A and its components depend on some symbolic variables (x, y and z). I want to replace the symbolic values with zero and I used subs function:
A = subs(subs(subs(A, x, 0), y, 0), z, 0);
and it doesn’t work (the replacement don’t take place) It doesn’t work either:
A = subs(A, x, 0);
What can I do to replace my symbolic variables with zero in this case?
Thanks!

The replacement doesn't take place, then what do you get?? It should work fine.
The same matrix A, with the symbolic elements unreplaced

Did you assign a value to x, y, or z at the MATLAB level? If so then when it is the value of x, y, or z that is going to be used in the subs(), not the symbol. You might be able to use
subs(A, {sym('x'), sym('y'), sym('z')}, {0, 0, 0})

What error did you get and which MATLAB version are you using?
This is the error
Error using mupadmex
Error in MuPAD command: Invalid variable. [stdlib::diff]
Error in sym/subs>mupadsubs (line 146)
G = mupadmex('symobj::fullsubs',F.s,X2,Y2);
Error in sym/subs (line 119)
G = mupadsubs(F,X,Y);
Version: R2012a
You were right: it works if I use another version of Matlab.
Thanks!
