What does that mean? Do you want to

1. launch Excel from MATLAB, and select cells A2:H2 in the workbook using ActiveX (if you're using Windows)? So if you hopped over to Excel, you would see those cells highlighted/selected?
2. Or do you want to import data from those cells in the workbook into MATLAB?

Those are two VERY different things. Please explain exactly what "select" means to you.
