Installation guide

Configuring Notebook

After you install Notebook but before you begin using it, you must configure

it. (Notebook is installed as part of the MATLAB installation process on

Windows platforms. For mo re inform ation, see the MATLAB installation

documentation for your platform.)

Before configuring Notebook, you must specify that Word can use the

Notebook macros.

• In Word 2000, 2002, and 2003 do either of the following:

- Set the macro security level to medium: in Word, select

Tools > Macros > Security, and in the resulting dialog box, choose

Medium.

- After starting Notebook, when Word first opens, a security warning

dialog box app ea rs. In the dialog b ox , select Always trust macros from

this source . This allows you to use Notebook, but still maintain a high

security level for other macros you use in Word.

• In Word 2007, follow the Word help instructions in the topic entitled

“Enable or disable macros in Office documents.”

To configure Notebook, type the following in the MATLAB Command Window:

notebook ('-setup')

MATLAB access es the Windows system registry to locate Microsoft Word and

the Word templates directory, and to identify the version of Word. MATLAB

then copies Notebook’s

m-book.dot template to the Word templates directory.

MATLAB Notebook supports Word versions 2000, 2002, 2003, and 2007.

When Notebook setup successfully finishes, M ATLAB displays the message
