[Walter Roberson]

Corrected version is above.

MATLAB has great documentation with plenty examples to show how to use its functions. Can't you use a little reading and problem-solving skill to solve this problem? It is going to cause an error. help save will show you how to solve it.

@Fangjun: I'm speechless again. One crack suggests SAVE for saving, the next one recommends HELP for helping. That's Matlab zen.

Moonman had asked 45 questions and he prefers answers by Wayne King.

Jan i welcome ansers from all but King always explains the things well thats why i accept his answers

i have also accepted answers from others

u all people are great

@Moonman: Do not get me wrong, I do appreciate Wayne's answers also. And some of my questions could be answered by Walter using just a few words also. Without all questions concerning Matlab are welcome in this forum.

"Use save to save" and "use help for help" reminds me to "D for drive" in Night on Earth.

I consulted the book and got answer

y=wavread('alpha.wav');
save alpha.mat y;
