Sorry for that Ben.

Following the example above did produce the 2 files necessary.  I am now 
having an issue in getting the resultant tex file to input into my 
report.  Seeing as it is a LaTeX issue, should I move it to a different 
group?

Just in case it can be resolved here, the following error is what I am 
getting {and it might just be a matter of me not including the right 
package}:

~~LaTeX file

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx,psfrag,floatflt,hyperref}
\begin{document}
\input{test2.tex}
\end{document}

~~LaTeX error
~~ snippet before the end ~~
Package hyperref Warning: Rerun to get /PageLabels entry.
(C:\Octave\3.2.3_gcc-4.4.0\MATLAB\test2.tex
! Missing $ inserted.
