Hello, I am using xlsread (in basic mode) in UNIX and I get this error: unrecognized header. Apparently it is a common error and there is no workaround. Well, I am still hoping someone could fix it…

As far as I understand when readinghelp xlsread, you can Excel files inbasic mode only under Linux. This means, that the "Excel" file must actually be a tab-separated text file or a "compatible with Excel 97-2003". Do you try to process a binary Excel file? Perhaps a XLSX file?
In order to read a Microsoft Excel 2007 file into MATLAB using the XLSREAD command, the full release of Excel 2007 must be installed on the machine. XLSREAD cannot read Excel 2007 files if only an older version of Excel is installed.
