Hi I am trying to fminsearch to optimize couple of parameters, however when I give the start I get the following error

Optimization running. Error running optimization. XLSREAD unable to open file 'C:\Users\GJ computational\Desktop\Book2.xlsx'. File 'C:\Users\GJ computational\Desktop\Book2.xlsx' not found.

We as outsiders have no reason to expect that file exists.

You should not call xlsread instead of an optimization. You should call it before you optimize and pass the data into your function. Search mathworks.com for "parameterizing functions"

It is not clear how this relates? The question at hand has to do with importing one file.
