hi!! i am currently using 2014 version of matlab and i don't think there is any function named xlmwrite .
For storing data into excel file
>> data=rand(5,2) % creating a random matix
%storing this matrix into 3 sheet of excel file
sheet=3;
%Here i am storing data into excel file of NameOfYourFile
xlswrite('NameOfYourFile',data,sheet,'F1')
%F1 is the cell no where this matrix stor in excel
data =
0.3111 0.9797
0.9234 0.4389
0.4302 0.1111
0.1848 0.2581
0.9049 0.4087
I try this in matlob r2013. Excel file which created this code has attached with this answer

Look at the documentation for xlswrite:
  • xlswrite(filename,A) writes matrix A to the first worksheet in the Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet workbook filename starting at cell A1.
You can use the xlRange input to somehow specify what row to write the data to. This would require keeping track of what row you last wrote to. Or first reading in the file to determine how many rows have already been written.
  • xlswrite(filename,A,xlRange) writes to the rectangular region specified by xlRange in the first worksheet of the workbook. Use Excel range syntax, such as 'A1:C3'.
An alternative is to use the user-submitted function xlsappend, available on the file exchange.

I have excel sheet i need to append the data inthe middle of excel sheet. Any one please help me
By definition, that is not appending.
You will likely need to rewrite all the information from the insertion point to the end of that sheet to get the data organized the way you want.
My approach would likely be to load all the data by the page, then incorprate the data where I want it, then rewrite all the data to the sheet.
