matlab online read excel sheet

Hello,

I'm having some issues with an excel sheet that i am trying to have matlab read. I uplaoded the excel sheet just fine in the files list but when i use the function readtable or xlsread it does not recognize the file. I tried putting the file path instead of the name but that didn't work either.

Have you tried specifying the file type as a spreadsheet when using the readtable function?

filename = 'Trial01_8deg (1).xlsx';
DATA = readtable(filename,'FileType','spreadsheet');

@saphir alexandre: You left out the space in the file name. You wrote:

filename = 'Trial01_8deg(1).xlsx';

The correct file name appears to be:

filename = 'Trial01_8deg (1).xlsx';

@saphir alexandre: I suspect the problem with xlsread was that you have another m-file called xlsread.m somewhere, which is being called instead of the built-in one, because xlsread with one input shouldn't give you the "Not enough input arguments" error.

You should follow Walter's advice and tell us what

which -all xlsread

outputs, in order to confirm that there is another xlsread.m file.
