Is it numeric data?
Is it required that the MATLAB program instruct Excel to write the data, or would it instead be acceptable to read the data into MATLAB and have MATLAB write the data?

  1. Yes, numeric data.
  2. Read data into MATLAB and then MATLAB writes data - this should be the case.

try this:
A=readtable('data.xlsx','ReadvariableName',false);
writetable(A,'myfile.txt')
or
B=readmatrix('data.xlsx');
writematrix(B,'myfile2.txt')

I have data in various other cells of that excel file. I want to write data of only the mentioned cells i.e. D3:D10.

jsut use this:
A=readtable('data.xlsx','ReadvariableName',false,'Range','D3:D10');
or
B=readmatrix('data.xlsx','Range','D3:D10');
