MATLAB: Error using writematrix (line 134) Invalid parameter name: Range.

Question

I am getting the error:

Error using writematrix (line 134)
Invalid parameter name: Range.

for running the following function:

writematrix([1],'se_inputs.csv','Range','B2')

Despite this implementation being given in the documentation.

I am using R2019a in Windows.

Answer 1

The parameter 'Range' is only valid when writing to a spreadsheet file. Per the documentation:

"The following standard file extensions are recognized by the writing function:

• .txt, .dat, or .csv for delimited text files
• .xls, .xlsm, or .xlsx for Excel spreadsheet files
• .xlsb for Excel spreadsheet files supported on systems with Excel for Windows"
