I just want to know how to reset popupmenu. Let's say the popupmenu string i give it a string name call AXIS.

It is still not getting clear to me. You have a popupmenu. What is "give it a string name"? and what does "clear it all" mean? Do you want to set the 'String' or the 'Value' property?

popH = uicontrol('Style', 'popupmenu', ...
     'String', {'1', '2', '3'});
pause(1);
set(popH, 'Value', 2);
pause(1);
set(popH, 'Value', 1, 'String', {'new'});
pause(1);

Does this help??

What you want to do is not possible, as it is not possible to give a popup menu a name at all. You can assign the handle of the popup menu to a variable, and you can assign a Tag to the popup menu, and you can change the contents of the pop-up menu by changing its String property -- but you cannot give it a name.

Well, you can always call it Betsy or Jimmy, but that would remain within the depths of your heart :).
