Execute command syntax

Hi, I need to change a value with and execute command like this

value = 1;
Execute(handles.server, 'test.a(1)=value')

but is only works, if the you type a number instead of value like this

 Execute(handles.server, 'test.a(1)=1')

any suggestions?

Thanks Kay

"any suggestions?"

Call PutWorkspaceData first, as the Execute examples show:

The character array 'test.a(1)=value' contains the word 'value' rather than the value of the variable "value". You can use sprintf() to get a variable number into a character array:

value = 1;
Execute(handles.server, sprintf('test.a(1)=%d',value))
