Creating an M-Book from MATLAB
To create a new M-book from within MATLAB, type
notebook
at the prompt. If you are running Notebook for the first time, you may need to configure it. See Configuring Notebook for more information.
Notebook starts Microsoft Word on your system and creates a new M-book, called Document1
.
When Word is opening, if a dialog box appears asking you to enable or disable macros, choose to enable macros. Notebook defines Microsoft Word macros that enable MATLAB to interpret the different types of cells that hold MATLAB commands and their output. For more information on macro security, see Configuring Notebook.
Notebook adds the Notebook menu to the Word menu bar. Use this menu, illustrated below, to access Notebook features.
Creating an M-Book While Running Notebook
With Notebook running, you can create a new M-book by selecting New M-book from the Word File menu.
Opening an Existing M-Book
You can use the notebook
command to open an existing M-book
notebook filename
where filename
is the M-book you want to open. Or you can double-click an M-book file in a Windows file management tool, such as Explorer.
When you double-click on an M-book, Microsoft Word opens the M-book and starts MATLAB if it is not already running. Notebook adds the Notebook menu to the Word menu bar and adds New M-book to the File menu.
