I've just checked and my program that creates these txt files was set with the txf file encoding as "Unicode". When I switch it to ANSI, import data and textscan work. The problem is that I have all my data in this UNICODE format. Can importdata or textscan work with this?
Importdata won't work with this txt file

Hello, I want to take a txt file that contains headerlines and then a matrix of numbers that represents an image. I cannot get importdata to read the file, I get
??? Error using ==> importdata at 214 Unable to load file. Use TEXTSCAN or FREAD for more complex formats.
I also can't get textscan to work. I have attached the file

Hi Jason,
I would use the textscan command to extract the data. By using
fid = fopen('Data.txt')
tmp = textscan(fid,'%s%f%f%f')
fclose(fid)
you will get a cell array of data. Now you can extract the data row by row using
cell2mat(tmp(index))
Now you are able to extract whatever you want out of your data. I cannot test this script in detail but I am pretty sure with some examinations on the data it should work.
If you do have problem please post.
