I had saved a *.mat file in Windows Vista MATLAB installation.
Now, I want to open this *.mat file in Windows XP MATLAB installation.
But when i try opening this *.mat file in Windows XP MATLAB installation, it gives me following error
load('-mat','Train2003')
??? Error using ==> load
Unable to read MAT-file C:\MATLAB7\work\libsvm-mat-2.87-1\Train2003.mat: not a binary MAT-file.
Anyone with ideas. Please help me out how to load this Train2003.mat file in Windows XP MATLAB installation.

The problem may be that the older version of Matlab cannot read these files saved in a newer version. I have both Vista and XP running 2007a and there is no compatibility issues at all.
If, in 2007a, you type:
help save
you will see that there is a switch
save filename -v7
in 2007a which allows a saved file to be read in version 7. You will have to use this switch in 2007a to load the file in 7.0
