reading and writing files from open office

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
I know that i can use dlmread and dlmwrite to work with .txt files, and i can use xlsread and xlswrite for excel files.
But i do not have microsoft office on my computer. I use open office, and and trying to open,use, and rewrite an excel file.
here is the error:
Warning: Could not start Excel server for import, 'basic' mode will be used. Refer to HELP XLSREAD for more information.

did u try using xlsread u should be able to read files. I am not sure of xlswrite
edit:
from the help file of xlsread
if your system does not have Excel for Windows, xlsread operates in basic import mode, and only reads XLS files compatible with Excel 97-2003 software

i have tried that, actually that is what i started with, but for somereason matlab is not happy working with open office. the funny thing is that I can open the file in Matlaab but it will not access the data. I also know that most of my script is right due to the fact that i had it running at class the other day. so i has to be in my laptop...totally frusterating!
