How to integrate two columns of data in MAT LAB

I have two columns of data in excel and I want to double integrate it in MATLAB using Trapezoidal method. Can some one help me how to do it in MATLAB R2009b. Any help is highly appreciated.

Since you are on an older release, how about using dblquad() instead?

Yes I do agree but could you please explain me how to integrate discrete datas. I am alien to Matlab
Please explain, what you have tried so far, e.g. if the import from Excel is working already, or if this is a part of the question. Please consider Where to add more details.
This is the code which I have tried so far all going futile
function dispdata = wint(w,dt)
N1=length(w);
numbers = w(1:1001);
N = 2^nextpow2(N1);
if N > N1
w(N1+1:N) = 0;
end
df = 1 / (N*dt);
Nyq = 1 / (2*dt);
acc_freq_data = fftshift(fft(w));
disp_freq_data = zeros(size(acc_freq_data));
f = -Nyq:df:Nyq-df;
for i = 1 : N
if f(i) ~= 0
disp_freq_data(i) = acc_freq_data(i)/(2*pi*f(i)*sqrt(-1))^2;
else
disp_freq_data(i) = 0;
end
end
dispdata = ifft(ifftshift(disp_freq_data));
dispdata = dispdata(1:N1);
w = xlsread('rawdata1.xlsx'); dt=.02; t=[0:dt:20]; acc = trapz (w,N1); disp = wint(acc,dt); plot(t,disp,t,acc);
