Not able to install io package |

Dear all, I am not able to get the io package installed properly. I am using
the Octave 3.8 version and downloaded the io package at the following site:
http://octave.sourceforge.net/io/index.html. The package name is
io-2.2.2.tar.gz . Within the GUI I navigate to the folder of this
downloaded file and type the following into the command line:
>> pkg install -forge io
I don't get an error and see the following:
For information about changes from previous versions of the io package, run
'news io
'.
When I try to use a function from that package (e.g. xlsread) I get the
following error:
>> help xlsread
error: help: Functions for spreadsheet style I/O (.xls .xlsx .sxc .ods .dbf
.wk1
etc.) are provided in the io package. See `http://octave.sf.net/io/'.
Please read `http://www.octave.org/missing.html' to learn how you can
contribute missing functionality.
Any ideas what is going wrong here and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jerome.
