how to export data from matlab into excel on a mac

I have downloaded the xlwrite function to print data to excel on a mac.

I keep getting however the following error message, both for the header and the regular numbers:

Undefined function 'WriteXL' for input arguments of type 'java.lang.String'.

Error in xlwrite (line 68) WriteXL(java.lang.String(file),Cell2JavaString(data),m(1),m(2));

My script is attached.

Any suggestions how to solve this error

WriteXL appears to be in Archive/WriteXL.java . Did you "import" from the archive?

Sorry for being an absolute beginner here, but what exactly do you mean by importing it from the archive? I made sure I had the most recent java application on my computer and downloaded the xlwrite function into the default matlab folder of user/documents/matlab. I experimented with also copying the function files to the folder I had set up as my working directory in matlab, but this did not change the error message.

Thank you for your help!
