How to export the output of a program into a new, specifically-located Excel file?

2 views (last 30 days)
I would like to export the output of a program into an Excel file that is created, located, and filled all within the program. Is this possible?
Right now, I can only fill a pre-existing excel file using the following commands, but I get an error message (pasted below)
xlswrite(filename,variable);
winopen(filepath)
Warning: Could not start Excel server for export.
Thank you!

Write mixed text and numeric data to test.xls, starting at cell E1 of Sheet1:
my_file = "C:\my_docs\any_folder\test.xls"; % place where you want to save the *.xls
d = {'Time','Temperature'; 12,98; 13,99; 14,97}; % your data
xlswrite(my_file, d, 1, 'E1')
This should work no Windows Systems.
