Hi Armin,

Try this at the start of your code. You may need to ensure the path exists before creating the diary file. You should get an error if that's the case, use mkdir for the path.

mypath = 'diaries'
myfile = "mydiary_" + datestr(now,30) + ".txt"
filepath = fullfile(mypath, myfile)
diary(filepath)

% Print location of diaryfile
get(0,'DiaryFile')

Hi peter Thank you for your help.these 2 pic show the errors how can fix them?

[Peter O]

That's a quick fix. I'm guessing this is an older version of MATLAB from before they introduced strings. Try this: myfile = ['mydiary_', datestr(now, 30), '.txt']

 Thank you very much. It works. Is it possible to change font color of txt file?

[Peter O]

If you're opening it from Notepad: Format -> Font...

If you're within MATLAB, a text file will be treated like plain text. You can change the font/color for all editor files by going to Preferences->Colors.
