That may depend on what values you have in i, j, V and I.  As an
example, look at this.  If you understand how it works, you may be able
to correct your problem:

octave2.1> a=vander(1:5), N=4, j=2, I=-1
      a =

          1    1    1    1    1
         16    8    4    2    1
         81   27    9    3    1
        256   64   16    4    1
        625  125   25    5    1

      N = 4
      j = 2
      I = -1
octave2.1> a(1:n,j)=I
      a =

           1    -1     1     1     1
          16    -1     4     2     1
          81    -1     9     3     1
         256    -1    16     4     1
         625   125    25     5     1
