MATLAB Run Dos Program from MATLAB on Leopard & Windows XP

AI Thread Summary
Running a DOS program via a MATLAB script on Leopard with Windows XP in Parallels presents challenges, particularly with access issues and directory naming. Users have attempted commands like system and dos without success, encountering an 'access denied' error. Running the Windows version of MATLAB in Parallels has also led to complications, such as directory renaming through remote software, which prevents the program from executing properly. Solutions may involve ensuring correct directory paths and permissions within the virtual environment.

I am running MATLAB on Leopard, i need to run a dos program via MATLAB script file. I also have windows xp running with parallel desktop. my m file is in the same directory as the dos program, on my virtual xp drive. i have tried using commands such as system and dos.. but to no avail.

anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried running the Windows version of MATLAB in Parallels?
 
I tried that but it was through remote software, so it renamed my directories for some reason. That made the program incapable of running.

i get an 'access denied' error
