This task can be accomplished using ActiveX with Excel. The following example function shows one way to do this:
function xlscolor(file, data, range)
%XLSCOLOR writes data like XLSWRITE
%but adds color options
% XLSCOLOR(FILE,DATA,RANGE) writes the variable in
% DATA to FILE, in the range specified by RANGE.
%Obtain the full path name of the file
file = fullfile(pwd, file);
%Open an ActiveX connection to Excel
h = actxserver('excel.application');
%Create a new work book (excel file)
wb=h.WorkBooks.Add();
%Select the appropriate range
ran = h.Activesheet.get('Range',range);
%write the data to the range
ran.value = data;
%The color is specified as an BGR triplet in hexadecimal notation
%RED = 0000FF
%BLUE= FF00FF
%GREEN=00FF00
%BLACK=000000
%WHITE=FFFFFF
ran.interior.Color=hex2dec('00FF00'); %Green
ran.font.Color=hex2dec('FF0000'); %Blue
% save the file with the given file name, close Excel
wb.SaveAs(file);
wb.Close;
h.Quit;
h.delete;
end
Example invocation:
xlscolor('Tone.xls',rand(5,5),'A1:E5')
