Hi All
I should write an array of 50000x2 from MATLAB to an Excel file, the problem is MATLAB doesn't leave the next rows free and writes something like : #N/D till the line 1 milion !!!
So I should delete it all, but I have so many files
could someone kindly propose a solution ?

Would have to see the code that seemed to cause the problem and probably have the data as well.
Are you sure the sheet(s) weren't already that way first?

Either specify the exact excel range to write to, or don't specify it at all.
Xsig = rand(10, 2);
xlswrite('test.xlsx', Xsig, 1, sprintf('A1:B%d', size(Xsig, 1)));
OR
Xsig = rand(10, 2);
xlswrite('test.xlsx', Xsig, 1);
When you say write to 'A:B', Matlab has an odd behavior to fill EVERY cell in columns A and B with something. Hence, the 1 million rows of N/A's

xlswrite(name, Xsig, 1, 'A:B');
^ sheet number
You could try
doc xlswrite
help xlswrite
