source analysis attempt using DICS method

Thanks for these replies.  I have now specified

cfg.mriunits = 'mm'
cfg.sourceunits = 'mm'

Then, I should re-run sourceinterpolate.m?  That seems to produce the new
results, but the same new results whether I specify both units as 'cm' or
'mm'.  If my MRI is in 'mm' and sourceanalysis.m uses cm, which are you
supposed to use?


thanks,
Brian
