import tab-delimited text file with header

Hi all,

I am trying to import tab-delimited text files in Octave with one header
line that look like this:

AAA BBB CCC ...
111 222 333 ...
444 555 NaN ...
NaN 666 777 ...
...

I have installed the io and nan octave-forge packages and still no luck.

The load function gives me the error "error: load: failed to read matrix
from file EDCLaserDust_1cm".

textread, dlmread, and csvread fail as well with errors that look like this
(for a file with 4 columns):
"error: `EDCLaserDust_1cm' undefined near line 15 column 17
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: evaluating argument list element number 1"

Does anyone have an idea on how to do this?
Thanks
Fabrice
