Re: XLSread issue: works in command window but not form m file

[Harm Ubbens]

Dear Dmitri,

Thank you for your reply on my issue. I have changed all the generic names but still encounter the same problem: I can load the excel file from the command window but not from an m-file with the same commands. 

When I did run the m-file the 'current directory changes' and then it does not work properly anymore. Whenever I launch the m-file from the current start-up directory (C:\Users\harm_) it does work. So changing current directory gives the error. 

Do you have an idea how to solve this?

Thanks,

Harm

Dear reader,

When I use xlsread from the command window in Octave 5.1.0 it works properly, however when I use the same commands from within an m-file it does not work and gives and out of bound error (see screenshots in attachment).

What can this problem be and how can I solve this?

Don't ever call your programs (in octave or otherwise) "test" or anything similarly generic.

Call it "test1" if you must.

 

Thanks,

Harm

Dmitri.
