How to go about creating XLS file (Matlab/HTML/JS)? - html

Question

I have been using MATLAB to ask plenty of questions via questdlg and then saving all the answers as data = {'Name of variable1', 'Name of variable2', etc}. I am on a MAC so xlswrite does not work. I have used xlwrite and it works when I hit run in MATLAB. I have compiled this via the Application compiler and included the xlwrite file. When running the file, the questions are asked, but the file is not created. This is a little odd as it works and creates the file in MATLAB directly.
I switched to dlmcell and this works in MATLAB but not when run externally. As this needs to run on Windows and MAC I would have to use dlmcell? (testing on mac, then distributing on mac and windows).
What I am trying to find out, is why would it work in MATLAB but not when compiled? If this is a big problem, then I thought HTML would be a good choice. Can I write data to .txt/.xls via HTML?
