BVAR in Dynare v4

Hello,

As a newish user, I am sure my problem stems from an elementary mistake, but I am unable to run the “bvar_and_dsge” model (or indeed any other model requiring the use of the “dynare_estimation” command) when combining Matlab R2007a and dynare v4. I receive the following messages:

EIGENVALUES:
Modulus Real Imaginary

         0.3             -0.3                0
         0.5              0.5                0

There are 0 eigenvalue(s) larger than 1 in modulus
for 0 forward-looking variable(s)

The rank condition is verified.

??? Undefined function or method ‘dynare_estimation’ for input arguments of type ‘double’.

Error in ==> bvar_and_dsge at 86
dynare_estimation(var_list_);

Error in ==> dynare at 49
evalin(‘base’,fname) ;

Any help would be highly appreciated!
