notebook
notebook('filename')
notebook('-setup')
notebook starts Microsoft Word software and creates a new M-book titled Document 1.
notebook('filename') starts Microsoft Word and opens the M-book filename, where filename is either in the MATLAB current folder or is a full path. If filename does not exist, MATLAB creates a new M-book titled filename. If the file name extension is not specified, MATLAB assumes .doc.
notebook('-setup') runs an interactive setup function for Notebook. It copies the Notebook template, m-book.dot, to the Microsoft Word template folder, whose location MATLAB automatically determines from the Windows system registry. Upon completion, MATLAB displays a message indicating whether or not the setup was successful.
