hi, I have importet data from excel into matlab using the following code:
filename = 'vola_regimes.xlsx';sheet = 1;xlRange_d = 'C4:C132';xlRange_sp='D4:D132';xlRange_dV = 'H4:H132';xlRange_VIX='I4:I132';date_SP = xlsread(filename, sheet, xlRange_d)SP = xlsread(filename, sheet, xlRange_sp)date_VIX = xlsread(filename, sheet, xlRange_dV)VIX = xlsread(filename, sheet, xlRange_VIX)
That is working perfectly, but the problem is that range C4:C132 and H4:H132 are both dates. the import fuction didn't work ant therefore I changed the format in excel to general instead of date. then I am able to imporat the data, but from what I can see when I use the datestr function, matlab is not recognizing the data correctly and instead of 05.08.2002 it gives me 06-Aug-0102
Is there a way to change that?
