I understand that you can search a string.

What I want to do is simple: just put the whole contents of the CSV into a cell/ matrix structure.

thank you.

fid=fopen(csvfile,'rt');
a=fscanf(fid,'%c');
fclose(fid);

Now everything, including commas and line-feeds, is in the string a.
You can parse it using the string functions: strfind, findstr and
strmatch.
First job is to look for line-feeds char(10).
These separate the lines.
Then you look for commas, which separate the data.

derek, just a thought

a=fread(fid,inf,'*char').';

is (probably) much(!) faster...

You're right, us:
>> tic;a=fscanf(fid,'%c');toc
Elapsed time is 1.332797 seconds.
>> frewind(fid);
>> tic;b=fread(fid,inf,'*char').';toc
Elapsed time is 0.399964 seconds.
