Dear Pierre ,

     I need to know the status of my jobs in my program.

     So I load the PIPE_status.mat file.

     The command is simple:  load ...../PIPE_status.mat

     But something bad happened, 

     The error is :
                 Unable to read MAT-file /data/logs/PIPE_status.mat: not a binary MAT-file.
                Try LOAD -ASCII to read as text.

     I have searched, http://www.mathworks.cn/support/solutions/en/data/1-35WPVT/index.html?solution=1-35WPVT

     MathWorks said as in the website.

     But I cannot solve it.

     I have tried to modify your code, but failed.

     Could you give me some help ?

     Thanks very much !

Best Regards

Zaixu
