Excel Results file in MAC

[r2rho1]

Hi. After running BEAR, I get the following error when trying to produce an Excel file with the results. I'm still trying to figure out how to solve this. I used to work with BEAR in Windows and never had this problem. I would appreciate any suggestion other than returning to Windows ;) Thanks

Warning: Unable to write to Excel format, attempting to write file to CSV format.

Hi. Nope. I ended up installing Parallels, and running MatLab from there as a Windows session. It is a pain, but I couldn't find any way around it.

Hi, Try this workaround: 1) download the xlwrite.m for Macs (https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/37560-xlwrite-export-data-to-excel-from-matlab-on-mac-win); 2) run the java that this code needs; 3) substitute in the xlswritegeneral the "xlswrite" for "xlwrite"; Wherever in the code there is .xlsx substitute it with .xls; This will generate the file in xls format in a Mac. Hope this works for you while the developers answer why is not working properly!
