Hello,
I have to read 20k or more xls files from a folder. From the xls I need just the values from between C26 and C29, this values are used after in some calculations.
So far i have this script:
clc, close, clear all
folder ='Folder adress';
filetype = '*.xls';
f=fullfile(folder,filetype);
d=dir(f);
for k=1:numel(d);
data{k}= xlsread(fullfile(folder,d(k).name),'C27:C29');
a=data{1,k};
if size(a) == [0,0]
b(k) = 0;
x(k) = 0;
else
b(k)=a(3,1)/a(1,1);
x(k)=(b(k)-1)/(b(k)+1);
end
end
It take the script about 30 minuters up to an hour to read all the excel files.Sometime the excel applicaion crash during the process.
There is another method to do this faster?
How can I stop excel from crashing (stop working)?
Thank you!

Hi
As per the above linked documentation, it is suggested that you use readmatrix, readcell, readtable instead of xlsread.

But how are the timings of those comapred to xlsread talking to excel ?
(I do not have a Windows system with Excel installed, so I cannot test that.)
