xlswrite substitute that writes to specific columns

6 views (last 30 days)
I would like to write a matrix to specific columns and rows of excel. xlswrite has this option but for compatibility issues I would want to find a substitue for it. Writetable or writematrix does not have this option (xlswrite(filename,A,xlRange)).
Any idea?

This syntax is equivalent to writematrix(A,filename,'Range',xlRange)

I receive this error:
Error using strlength
First argument must be text.
Error in writematrix (line 147)
n = strlength(varargin{i});
Error in Boundaryfinder (line 57)
writematrix(fullFileNameofxy,B(:,2),sheet,xlRange)
B(:,2) is a colmun of numbers. xlRange is 'A2' and sheet is 1.

Note the signatures are different.
The first input is the data, and the second input is the file name. Subsequent inputs need to be Name-Value pairs.
The correct calling syntax would be:
writematrix(B(:,2),fullFileNameofxy,'Sheet',sheet,'Range',xlRange)
