Hi all, I need to convert multiple xlsx files to .mat. The directory contains 4 folders which contain about 200 folders each which contain about 4 excel files each. How can I get MatLab to go this directory and convert every .xlsx file to .mat? I know how to do it for one file, but that doesn't help very much when I have to do it for almost a thousand files.

So far I have this:

files = dir('*.csv');
for file = files'
  csv = csvread(file.name);
  % Do some stuff
end

Now I need it to read every .csv file and save the data as .mat. Would this something like this work?

files = dir('*.csv');
for file = files'
  csv = csvread(file.name);
  save = (file.name);
end

Will this go through every folder in the directory and create .mat copies of the .csv data?

Any help appreciated.

The FAQ are not intended to be code to cover all possibilities: they are intended to be code showing you techniques that you can apply.

Using only the techniques shown in the FAQ, together with fileparts(), you can create this:

projectdir = '.';    %Start here. or name an absolute directory
folderinfo = dir(projectdir);
folderinfo = folderinfo([folderinfo.isdir]);  %select only the directories
folderinfo = folderinfo(~ismember({folderinfo.name}, {'.', '..'}));  %remove directories . and ..
for folderidx = 1 : length(folderinfo)
  thisfolder = fullfile(projectdir, folderinfo(folderidx).name);
  subfolderinfo = dir(thisfolder);
  subfolderinfo = subfolderinfo([subfolderinfo.isdir]);  %select only the directories
  subfolderinfo = subfolderinfo(~ismember({subfolderinfo.name}, {'.', '..}));   %remove directories . and ..
  for subfolderidx = 1 : length(subfolderinfo)
    thissubfolder = fullfile(thisfolder, subfolderinfo(subfolderidx).name);
    fileinfo = dir( fullfile(thissubfolder, '*.csv') );
    for fileidx = 1 : length(fileinfo)
      thisfile = fullfile(thissubfolder, fileinfo(fileidx).name);
        [filepath, basename, ext] = fileparts(thisfile);
        outputfile = fullfile(filepath, [basename '.mat']);
        SaveVariableNameGoesHere = csvread(thisfile);  %or as appropriate to read file
        save(outputfile, 'SaveVariableNameGoesHere');  %save as .mat
      end   %files within subfolder
    end     %subfolders with folder
  end       %folders

Thanks for all the help. One more question, how would I modify where I want the files saved? I would like to put them in a separate folder labeled with a time stamp so I know when all the files were converted, so when I do future conversions, I know what data is the most up to date. Again, thanks a ton.

Also, the CSV files I am reading contain text, so cvsread will not work. I am trying to implement textscan, but I am having troubles with how to set up the inputs. textscan(file,'?'). I noticed people using %f, %d, delimiter and stuff like that but I am not sure how to utilize these things to have it scan the .csv files correctly.
