Note MATLAB Builder for Excel 1.0 was initially released in
Web-downloadable form after Release 12.1 was released, but before Release
13.
MATLAB Builder for Excel provides the capability to incorporate seamlessly
and quickly MATLAB models and functions into Excel worksheets. A
graphical user interface enables you to build and deploy Excel Add-Ins
containing functionality designed in MATLAB but accessed from the Excel
environment.
Using MATLAB Builder for Excel to create a deployable application is a
simple process requiring a sequence of six steps:
1 Creating a project

2 Managing MATLAB and MEX-files
3 Building a project
4 Testing the model
