Why am I getting an error diagnostic when trying to export data to a folder in my path definition?

My path includes C:\Users\Emilio\Documents\MATLAB\Quants but when I try to export something to

filename=C:\Users\Emilio\Documents\MATLAB\Quants\Basic.xlsx;

I get the diagnostic below

         ↑
 Error: Invalid use of operator.

What am I doing wrong?

Please post the real code. I guess you did something like:

filename=C:\Users\Emilio\Documents\MATLAB\Quants\Basic.xlsx;

although you meant:

filename = 'C:\Users\Emilio\Documents\MATLAB\Quants\Basic.xlsx';

with quotes.

The small arrow ↑ points to the invalid operator. As soon as you post the original line, the problem gets clear.

Thanks, that worked like a charm!
