Link two row in a table

In a GUI a have two tables , trough a button when select a row from the upper table it send to the bottom table like this:

D=get(handles.uitable1,'Data');

Index=get(handles.uitable1,'UserData');

a = D(Index.Indices(:,1), :);

old_data=get(handles.uitable4,'Data');

old_data = array2table(old_data);

new_data = [old_data; a];

set(handles.uitable4, 'Data',new_data);

I have two perform an extra action , so when the user push that button an dialog window ask him if he want to link a new entry from the upper table with an existing one from the second table and if he is agree to force the user to select a row from the second table.

I tried to do something like this:

D=get(handles.uitable1,'Data');

Index=get(handles.uitable1,'UserData');

a = D(Index.Indices(:,1), :);

answer = questdlg('Link entry?', ...

'Atention !', ...

'YES','NO','No thank you');

switch answer

case 'YES'

%%% HERE I DONT KNOW TO FORCE USER TO SELECT A ROW FROM uitable4

D=get(handles.uitable4,'Data');

Index=get(handles.uitable4,'UserData');

variable_for_further_purpose = D(Index.Indices(:,1), :); % This I will use for further_purpose

%%%

old_data=get(handles.uitable4,'Data');

old_data = array2table(old_data);

new_data = [old_data; a];

set(handles.uitable4, 'Data',new_data);

case 'NO'

old_data=get(handles.uitable4,'Data');

old_data = array2table(old_data);

new_data = [old_data; a];

set(handles.uitable4, 'Data',new_data);

end

Thanks !

In App Designer and apps created with the uifigure function, uiconfirm is recommended over questdlg because it provides additional customization options.
