Exported formulas on excel sheets resulted in text which would not be evaluated automatically

19 ビュー (過去 30 日間)
According to the past post, simply using xlswrite and writecell to export formula as text (char/string) will result in formulas in Excel.
However executing the following on R2019a, Windows 10.
a={'1','2','=sum(a1,b1)'}
a(2,:)={'4' '5' '=sum(a2,b2)'}
a(3,:)={4, 5 ,'=sum(a3,b3)'}
% xlswrite('Book.xls',a)
writecell(a,'Book.xls')
creates the following.
Do we need any set-up on Excel side or is there anything that can be done from MATLAB side? Using ActiveX is of course an option, but I'm looking for simpler option.

That post does not say that the formulas will be executable once written by xlswrite.
None of the table based operations such as writetable or writecell are able to create executable formulas. You will need to use ActiveX methods.

Setting 'UseExcel' to true resolves the issue with writecell.
a={'1','2','=sum(a1,b1)'}
a(2,:)={'4' '5' '=sum(a2,b2)'}
a(3,:)={4, 5 ,'=sum(a3,b3)'}
writecell(a,'Book.xls','UseExcel',true)

So do I understand correctly, that there is no solution for environments without Excel installed? I have a managed Linux environment that uses Open Office, rather than Excel.
