problem with dsp builder & Quartus II Path

Hi everyone,

I have many versions of quartus II because I need them all; but Iwant to use dsp builder with quartus v8.0; It doesn't work; I verified the Quartus II Path by typing this command:

!echo %QUARTUS_ROOTDIR%

and I get this:

>> !echo %QUARTUS_ROOTDIR%

%QUARTUS_ROOTDIR%

I verified that QUARTUS_ROOTDIR point to the correct version of quartus in the Environment Variables.

Please help:confused:

    To make sure QUARTUS_ROOTDIR is set correctly, right-click on My Computer and select properties. Then click on the Advanced tab and select Environment Variables. Now check that QUARTUS_ROOTDIR is there (adding it if it's not to System Variables although I think user variables will work as well). Click OK.

    now restart matlab and try again. I think !echo %QUARTUS_ROOTDIR% will work, but FYI the MATLAB way to do it is "getenv QUARTUS_ROOTDIR".
