Hello,
I get the same error message for ??? Undefined function or method 'finv' for input arguments of type 'double'. in a routine that some months ago was working.
when i type 'which -all finv' I get 'C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2008a\toolbox\comm\comm\private\finv.p % Private to comm'
I had my folder in Documents when initially got this message. Now I am moved it under: C:\Program Files\MATLAB\ but I still get the same error message!

ANything to suggest?
Any help would be much appreciated
Konstantina

a hint:
- buy and install the stats tbx...

which finv -all;
% MATLABROOT\toolbox\stats\finv.m
