tdfread fails to open file

I create my own tab-delimited files, then open them with tdfread. One, and only one, of my files cannot be opened by tdfread. I can find no way to get any details on what might be wrong. I have attached four example files. The one starting with "Gor" is the only one that fails to open.

It seems to run for me - it created a structure. What exactly do you mean by "fails to open"? Was there an error message?

[Jeff Eriksen]

When I call tdfread for this one file, it returns an FID = -1, and then the error message that it cannot open the file.

Are you sure you have the full file name - that means the folder prepended in front of the base file name? Are you sure the file is not open by some other process while you are also trying to open it?

[Jeff Eriksen]

Yes on full file name. I cd to the folder in the script and see the files in the Matlab interface, so a path is not involved at all. I put in a breakpoint and at the command window type in the script line and execute it as well to check. No other processes are running, just my GUI on one processor of a Linux cluster. The other 3 files open fine in the exact same circumstances. I am off on vacation in an hour. When I return this weekend I will send code snippets.
