I am not able to use FOPEN or FWRITE on files greater than 2GB with MATLAB 7.0 (R14).
When I try to write more than 2GB to a file, I receive the following error:
File size limit exceeded (core dumped)
When I try to open a file using the following format:
[fid, message] = fopen('myFile','r');
I receive the following error:

File too large
