spectrogram function: phase and magnitude

Hi,

I read the Spectrogram function and I sort of understand it, but I have a question. As stated in the definition, the Spectrogram returns the Short-time Fourier Transform of the input signal. When I take a STFT, I must get two components: magnitude and phase. I assume that the magnitude vector is what we get from the Spectrogram, but what about the phase? Please help!!!!

Thanks

The spectrogram function returns complex numbers, which include both magnitude and phase information.

   [S,F,T] = spectrogram(...);

   A = abs(S);
   phi = angle(S);

Thank you very much Rick :)
