[Eeglablist] How to import specific data from .xls to EEGLab

[Makoto Miyakoshi]

Dear Stephen and Michelle,

I guess when the EEGLAB function for importing/exporting the excel files
were written, things could have been much different than they are now. It
is possible that such Matlab/Excel compatibility is causing the problem
(without testing, just my guess as a possibility)
