Undefined function or method 'ib' for input arguments of type 'char'
ib = ibtws('',7496)
I have been tried to reinstall new Microsoft Visual C++ packages or upgrade the Microsoft Visual C++ package is still does't work. Is it I have to Create "IB Trader Workstation connection" first ?

This appears to require the Trading Toolbox and R2013b or later. Do you have that toolbox installed? Which MATLAB version are you using?

As Walter mentioned, you need to purchase the Trading Toolbox in order to use the ibtws function.
As an alternative, consider using the cross-platform Java-based approach (not ActiveX) of the IB-Matlab product: http://undocumentedmatlab.com/ib-matlab
