Can Matlab get information from a new filetype but one thats readable in notepad?

The filetype is a VAMAS or *.vms file in this case. You can open the file in Notepad, and read the information easily enough there. However saying 'load' or 'textread' in Matlab doesn't seem to work. Is there a way around this?

I would expect fopen/textscan to work.

You could also try importing it directly with the import tool (right click on the file in the current folder and select "Import Data").
