i found this for solving a BVP problem:

you have a condition like this: 
equations
y(0)=2
y(L)=4

Using ODE function, you can't do this, but you have to write something like this: 

equations
y(0)=2
Y'(0)=alfa
 
then you write this new equation: F(alfa)=y(L)-4

and you need to find alfa for wich F(alfa)=0 (so y(L)=4)

my question is: how to solve this equation? can i use something like the MATLAB's "fzero" function? (i think it's ok in matlab, but i don't konw really)
