How do I interface between FactSet and MATLAB?

I want to interface between FactSet and MATLAB. I know I can save FactSet data to an MS Excel Spreadsheet file, but I would like to import my FactSet data directly into MATLAB.

The Datafeed Toolbox 1.6 (R14+) and later versions support FactSet server.

The Datafeed Toolbox Version 1.6 adds the FactSet data server to the list of previously supported servers (Bloomberg, FT Interactive Data, Hyperfeed, and Yahoo). Version 1.6 provides functions to obtain price, profile, historical, and tick data from FactSet.

If you are using previous versions of the Datafeed Toolbox, there are no workarounds.
