MATLAB: Pass a parameter vector to an exe file

dossystem

Hi to all, I have a exe file generated from fortran that I need to run in Matlab for different parameters. The exe file require that I input by keyboard the parameter and the option in matlab: system('myprogram.exe') (equivalently ! or dos or unix) work in the same way: need the input by the keyboard. Exist the possibility to pass the input in a different way? I have tried system('myprogram.exe PARAMETER') but doesn't work. Thank you in advance to all. erasmo

try system('myprogram.exe < InputParameters.txt') where InputParameters.txt is a text file that you created ahead of time, just type in the parameters to the text file as if you are type it in command window, include the carriage return.
