a = rand(1000, 100);

for k = 1:100
    fileID = fopen(['data', num2str(k), '.txt'],'w');
    fprintf(fileID,'%f\n',a(:, k));
    fclose(fileID);
end

Thanks for your response. You have considered 'a' as rand(1000,100); But my file 'a' has order of m*n which is in cell format where as your 'a' is in double format. please help

[Walter Roberson]

The first thing you should do is define the format you want the cells written out in, including any information about how you want to mark the end of one cell and the beginning of the next.

Then you just use curly brackets. Assuming that a is a cell. The code below will simply put the entries in the cells in one column. You need to provide more information in your question what format you want to have them in the text file.

for k = 1:100
    fileID = fopen(['data', num2str(k), '.txt'],'w');
    fprintf(fileID,'%f\n',a{:, k});
    fclose(fileID);
end

Thank you so much

The text file is an alphanumeric one with different number of columns varying which looks like this

TABLE: "AREA AUTO MESH ASSIGNMENTS"

Area=1 MeshType="Maximum Size" MeshGroup=All Max1=1.2 Max2=1.2 LocalEdge=Yes LocalFace=No SuppEdge=Yes SuppFace=No SubMesh=No

TABLE: "AREA BRIDGE OBJECT FLAGS" Area=1 AutoBridge=Yes BridgeObj=BOBJ1 BOSpan="Span 1" CompType="Top Slab" StartSta=0 EndSta=2.7875

TABLE: "AREA LOCAL AXES ASSIGNMENTS 1 - TYPICAL" Area=1 Angle=0

and so on...

I have read these text files in matlab which are in cell format and edited the files according to the requirement. I need to save the edited files (which in cell format) in text format

Hope you understood the problem
