Creating Message Box for Variable selection Instead of command window request.

Hi guys,

I am wanting to make my script produce a message window to ask for a key input to select a variable. the only function of this is to populate 1 cell in an excel sheet as I do alot of test data. each data set has to havea contents page and title. it is the title that I am wanting to change,

Currently the script is

***********************************************************

variable={'variable 1' variable 2' 'variable 3' ' variable 4'....'Variable 9'}

option=input('Please indicate the name of the variable to be analysed: 1=variable 1\ 2 = variable 2\ 3= variable 3\ 4 = variable 4\....\9 = Variable 9

if option >= 1 && option <= 9
  T = Vehicletitle{option};
end

***********************************************************

the variable then is used to be inserted to excel.

many thanks

James

Perhaps something like this:

prompt = 'Please enter the name (1-9) to be analyzed';
name = 'Input vehicle number'
option = str2double(inputdlg(prompt,name,1,{'1'}))
