hello

I could not make it work untill I rewrotte the line with col_headers in my own command window with

maybe an issue with a copy / paste that created an issue ??

col_headers = {'time','Ci0','Ti0','Tci0','Ci','Ti','C','T','Qc','Tci','Tc','b','a'}
xlswrite('s101_n00.xlsx',col_headers,'Sheet1','A1')

As @Mathieu NOE points out, there's something a little strange in your col_headers = line. This line has a bunch of extra characters, specifically a bunch of characters marked with Unicode 8203 (Zero Width Space). You can't see these characters, (because they have zero width), but if you try to arrow around through them in the editor or command window you might notice your cursor getting 'stuck'.

col_headers_line="col_headers={​​​​​'time','Ci0','Ti0','Tci0','Ci','Ti','C','T','Qc','Tci','Tc','b','a'}​​​​​"

col_headers_line = "col_headers={​​​​​'time','Ci0','Ti0','Tci0','Ci','Ti','C','T','Qc','Tci','Tc','b','a'}​​​​​"

double(col_headers_line{:})==8203 % or skip the ==8203 in MATLAB desktop and they'll jump right out at you
