Accessing Webcam Through MATLAB Code

I would like to access an external Webcam (USB). The command I am using is 'imaqhwinfo' but it seems like it can only find the built in one, and not the external connected through USB.
output=
InstalledAdaptors: {'gentl' 'gige' 'matrox' 'winvideo'}
MATLABVersion: '8.1 (R2013a)'
ToolboxName: 'Image Acquisition Toolbox'
ToolboxVersion: '4.5 (R2013a)'
