Hi

I think all you need to add is one apostrophe to transpose your matrix:

 fprintf(fid,'%.6f\t... \n', L12...corr');
                                       ^--   that's it, there.

When you say

 fprintf(fid,'format',A)

the matrix A is sent to the print routine column by column, just
like A(:).  The format is used over and over again until all the data
has been processed.  Since you are thinking of the format as 
describing a row, not a column, use

 fprintf(fid,'format',A')

Hope this is what you were after.
