Re: Bizarre Error

[pand9613]

Okay to make everyones life easier i have isolated the problem:

i have written a new function that has the same problem:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
function test
a=1
while a==1
loadline=['load -force testfile.dat'];
eval(loadline);
userin=input('>>','s');
userin=str2num(userin)
if userin==0
return
end
end
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

just create the file testfile.dat containing any old stuff then run this 
function. Test different strings...a string prefixed by a number produces an 
error.
