How to pass a string to Matlab

[superbrudd]

Hi,

I'm trying to pass a string from Labview to a Matlab script node so that
matlab may open a the file named in the string. Does anyone have any ideas
as to how to do this?

Thanks!

Brad.

PS I tried converting the string to a byte array and passing it - but I
can't work out how to convert it back from a byte array into a string in
Matlab.

You can use char(x) to convert the byte array x into astring in Matlab.

Good Luck.
