blp api undefined function or variable R2010a

present in the STATIC JAVA PATH: javaclasspath()

C:\Program Files (x86)\blp\API\APIv3\JavaAPI\v3.7.1.1\lib\blpapi3.jar

when typing: c = blp in MATLAB 7.10.0 (R2010a) I get: ??? Undefined function or variable 'blp'

how come the class is not downloaded?

Many thanks,

The error message suggests that you do no possess the Datafeed toolbox. That toolbox is necessary to execute the blp command. The file blpapi3.jar is not enough.
