parsing error with missing commas?

[Jörg Bretschneider]

I have to port an entire toolbox from matlab to octave and run into
trouble with a parsing error:
syntax error
when I ussued a command with a cell array whose elements where separated
simply by spaces, which is quite common in matlab and also works with
octave 3 in many cases.
I attach the command as my email here cannot produce the brackets for
cell arrays, just {}

Thanks

    BG_obj = vtkobj('vectors',{'bfeld' 'float' bgrid});
    bgrid = vtkobj('POINT_DATA',{grid_obj BG_obj});
    BHobj = vtkobj('array',{'bh' nh np 'float' b});
    BHobj = vtkobj('field',{'halldata' 1 BHobj});   
    BHobj = vtkobj('POINT_DATA',{space_obj BHobj}); 
    BHobj = vtkobj('FIELD_DATA',{space_obj BHobj});     
    bobj = vtkobj('vectors',{['bfeld' num2str(ipxc)] 'float' bpxc(:,:,ipxc)});
    SBobj = vtkobj('point_data',{SBobj bobj});    
    SBobj = vtkobj('point_data',{SBobj bcentral});
works all fine, 
but this one creates a parsing error:

Syntax error

    BHobj.halldata.uh = vtkobj('array',{'uh' nh np 'float' uh});
                                                  ^ 

???

Note that the same command earlier with another variable name 'bh' did not 
produce 
an error.

I didn't find any rules in the docs regarding the use of the comma as a 
separator.
Maybe there's an answer, but I didn't come across it....
