writing string cell matlab

I load a cell string using [num,txt,raw] = xlsread('c:/wrd2.xls'); it seem that the cell txt ideed contains all the strings, but when I am trying to look inside开发者_高级运维 it, using txt(1) or txt{1} it returns {""}. and I also can't write it to another file, using xlswrite('filenamve',txt).

any ideas?

thank you

Without a reproducible example, it is difficult to determine what the problem is.

The most obvious cause of txt(1) being blank is that the first Excel cell that you read did not contain text. (Perhaps it was empty or contained a number.)

If your call to xlswrite isn't working, then the first thing to do is to read the error message. Perhaps you are trying to write to a location that doesn't exist, or you've done something peculiar to the variable txt. If you don't understand the error message then tell us what it says, and we can try to provide more help.
