C=yourprocessingfunctionthatreturnscellarray();

%write results to excel file as a cell array along one row of excel output file
writecell(C,outputfile(j))
end
end
As in the other Answer, you're trying to do too much here -- writecell and friends handle the opening and the closing internally including creating the new file from the given file name.
As @Mathieu NOE noted, showing an example file always makes easier for folks to make specific code, as well as having actual code to be able to comment on.
