is there no support for opening special worksheets from an xls file with linux?
>> m=xlsread('mysheed.xlsx','L2010');
Error using xlsreadXLSX>sheetNameToIndex (line 210)
Worksheet 'L2010' not found.
Error in xlsreadXLSX>getXLSXData (line 130)
sheetIndex = sheetNameToIndex(baseDir, sheet);
Error in xlsreadXLSX (line 9)
[sharedStrings, parsedSheetData, range] = getXLSXData(file, sheet, range);
Error in xlsread (line 233)
[numericData, textData, rawData] = xlsreadXLSX(file, sheet, range);

Do you have a reference for what a "special worksheet" is in Excel ? Is 'L2010' supposed to be a flag indicating Excel 2010 compatibility or something like that?
Also, which version of MATLAB are you using?

Calling it with int instead of string works fine
>> m=xlsread('sheet.xlsx',2);
