I am copying some folder addresses directly from the toolbar and getting the following problem:

??? Error using ==> cd
Too many input arguments.

I am using matlab2006 on win7 ulti, xp mode.

When I pursue similar procedure on my win7 or vista with matlab 2008 and 2009 I am not facing any problems, however I have to stick with matlab2006 for some specific software.

would really appreciate if someone can help asap.

solved it.

you have to parse the address i.e. another cd command for each subfolder.

I know this is an old post, but I was also just searching for a solution.
For anyone else with this problem, it may be from spaces in your pathname. To overcome, surround the pathname in single quotes. Ex.

cd 'c:\users\ben and jerry\documents'

To check and see if it worked, type "pwd" without quotes (print working directory).
