Donald,

The problem is that my "batch.m," as you call it, is just an SPM8 _batch engine_ batch script.  That is, it just defines a bunch of "matlabbatch" stuff.  Running it within matlab doesn't do anything; it has to be "loaded" and "run" by the SPM8 batch engine.  That's the part I'm uncertain how to instantiate in matlab code.

In other words, it's not batch code I wrote myself (calling functions spm_*.m); rather, it's "SPM8 batch engine" batch code.

Best,

S

Batch.m
End

You don't need to load the m file. You can run Ur straight from the
command line.
