Uicontrol, struct cell array to uitable

Hey guys,

I have some issues with an uitable and different data types. I have a struct called data with the fields 'Properties' and 'Values' which get me a field 'DT'.

 'data.Properties' 
 'data.Values' 
 'data.DT = {data.Properties, data.Values}'

I want to get a table like this one but with 'data.DT' and with the uicontrol objects 'gui.checkbox{k}':

How is it possible to create the uitable with data.DT and not with data.DT1?

Is it possible to get my uicontrol objects 'gui.checkbox{k}' in a column of the uitable as well?

 function Test_UiTable_V2()
    %%Test Function
        close all
        data = createData();
        gui = createInterface();

 function data = createData()

    %%Data from Excel
        data.Properties = {'a';'b';'c';'d';'e'};
        data.Values = [1;2;3;4;5];
        data.DT = {data.Properties, data.Values};
        data.DT1 = {false,'a',1;false,'b',2;false,'c',3};

 end

 function gui = createInterface()

    %%Window figure and Panel
        gui.Window = figure('Units','normalized','Outerposition',[0 0 1 1],...
                            'Name','Test ', ...
                            'NumberTitle', 'off','MenuBar', 'none');
        gui.panel = uipanel('Units','pixels','Title','Test',...
                            'FontSize',10,'Position',[15  400  300  300]);  
    %%Gui.Checkboxes             

        i = size(data.Properties, 1);

        for k=1:i
        gui.checkbox{k} = uicontrol('parent',gui.panel,'Style','checkbox','tag', sprintf('checkbox%d', k),'string',data.Properties(1*k),... 
                                    'Position',[10 150-k*20 150 20],'callback',@(src,evt)Checkbox_(src,evt,k));          
        end

        %%UI_Table with manual data input from data.DT1
        gui.table_Properties = uitable('parent',gui.panel,'ColumnName',...
                                      {'Checkboxes','Properties', 'Values'},'RowName',{},...
                                      'ColumnWidth',{'auto'},'Position',[40 20 200 200]);

        gui.table_Properties.Data = data.DT1; % This should work with data.DT
 end
 end

 struct of several fields including a cell array called
 'data.Properties'

You cannot use a dot in the name of a cell array. Usually the quotes mean, that this is a chat vector, therefore your first sentence is not clear already.

You mean:

 I have a struct called |data| with the fields 'Properties' and
 'Values'.

You forgot to mention what your question is.

Note:

[i,] = size(data.Properties);

This is no valid Matlab syntax. Do you mean:

i = size(data.Properties, 1);

Thanks for your help. I hope i got it clear now.

No, this cannot work. You cannot create the checkboxes by uicontrol and move them magically into the uitable. I do not see a reason to try this. The documentation of uitable explains, how checkboxes are created in the table, so use this method instead of inventing a new one.

Ok thanks for the information, but how do I get a cell array to my uitable? It doesn't work with a char or cell2mat format as well.
