Hi Scott,
Yes, in retrospect I was very ambiguous. I'm referring to the System Command Line (the DOS prompt, as it were).
To run a .m file function named FunctionName in a file by the same name, I have gotten the following to work, as you suggested:
matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r FunctionName
However, the function I am starting needs 6 arguments, with the first 3 being floating point numbers and the last 3 being strings. I've tried every weird permutation I can think of but the values I put in just never get through:
matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r FunctionName arg1 arg2 arg3 etc.
This part has me stumped. I tried also using variable argument detection withing the .m file function, but I haven't gotten that to work either. I finally resorted to simply putting the arguments in a file, then letting the .m function read them from there. That works, but what a kluge!
Thanks, Ray
