sorry , but what should replace fullname in (oAddin.FullName) and do i write
oAddin with an o?!

I don't think that this will work,. Via automation, the addins are not
loaded, it is not just that their installed property is not set. You need to
explicitly load them

Dim oAddin

For Each oAddin In Application.AddIns
If oAddin.Name = "MATLAB.xla" Then
xl.Workbooks.Open(oAddin.FullName).RunAutoMacros 1
End If
Next

Does this work?

(assuming Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel10.Application"))

xlApp.AddIns("MATLab").Installed = True
