Writing to text file problem

Hello everybody,

I need to import some basic data in a very basic form to Matlab. I am able to import the data with 'load' and 'dlmread' commands, but when using 'save' and 'dlmwrite' commands , i am getting errors.

-I have created the files manually, files to read from and to write to are different files.

-Matlab can open and read both of the files but cannot write to any of the files.

-Text files are located at the matlab folder which is under the 'Documents'

-I don't know if matlab has permission to access/change the files/folders but i think i wouldn't be able to make matlab read the files if it didn't have the access permission.

   dosya = dlmread('delimite.txt' , ',' ) ;

   c1 = dosya(:,1) ;
   c2 = dosya(:,2) ;

   dlmwrite('delimite2.txt' ,[c1 c2], ',' )

   Error using dlmwrite (line 124)
   Cannot open file delimite2.txt.

   Error in Write_deneme (line 6)
   dlmwrite('delimite2.txt' ,[c1 c2], ',' )

Data inside the text file is as follows;

   12, 24 
   13, 46 
   34, 98 
   28, 52

I am using matlab R2015a and windows 10-64 bit. Problem is the same on my laptop and desktop. Both have the same windows and Matlab versions. But i have my friends who can run the code and write to text files without any problem.

Is there any easy solution to this problem, or alternatives that i can try? Sorry if there is any missing information.

Alright, i have solved this.

On the preferences window, general tab, i have changed the initial working folder directory from "C:/ProgramFiles/Matlab/MatlabProductionServer/R2015a/bin" to "ThisPC/Documents/Matlab" and it solved the issue. Only thing that remains now is the form of writing.

I have opened this file with the code;

 12, 24
 13, 46
 34, 98
 28, 52
 61, 85

And with dlmwrite it gave me the output in this form:

24,12 46,13 98,34 52,28 85,61

If you can help me correct it to the row and column form, i would be grateful.
