Thanks Philip. I'll give the java package a try.

I'm running GNU Octave, version 3.6.1 on Cygwin on Windows 7 and need to be able to use the xlsread function.  As such, I've installed io-1.0.18, but when attempting to install the windows-1.1.0 package, I get some errors:
Makefile:27: recipe for target `__COM__.oct' failed
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/oct-28a03c.2/Windows/src'
error: called from `pkg>configure_make' in file /usr/share/octave/3.6.1/m/pkg/pkg.m near line 1385, column 9

error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.1/m/pkg/pkg.m at line 383, column 9

As a result, the xlsread does not yet function.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I'm not familiar (anymore) with Octave on cygwin. But perhaps you can get the Java package to work. If so, you can use the Java-based spreadsheet interfaces.

Alternatively, you can install Octave for MinGW or MSVC. Both have the windows package available (pre-compiled).
