I'm trying to estimate a simple New Keynesian model but get this error message when I try to run the file: 
??? Error using ==> cell.strmatch 
Requires character array or cell array of strings as inputs. 
Error in ==> read_variables at 35 
iv = strmatch(var_names_01(dyn_i_01,,raw(1,,'exact'); 
Error in ==> dynare_estimation at 170 
rawdata = read_variables(options_.datafile,options_.varobs,[],options_.xls_sheet,options_.xls_range); 
Error in ==> flexw at 129 
dynare_estimation(var_list_); 
Error in ==> dynare at 49 
evalin('base',fname) ;

Dear Juillard, thanks a lot for your reply. 
I am attaching a better version of both the datafile and the *.mod file. 
My best regards
