extracting data from double string

Hey guys,
I am putting together a display from data in a data structure and I have hit a road block...
So far I have coded in this manner:
%Display Names
single_example = example(1)
cell_space = blanks(100)
names = single_example.names;
single_name = names{1};
row1a = cell_space(1:9)
row1a = ' Name: '
row1b = cell_space(10:100)
row1b(1:length(single_name)) = single_name;
display_row1 = ['|', row1a, row1b, '|']
%which results in: | name: Alex |
but I now face the problem that I need to reference a cell that has multiple lines of date rather than just one 1x1 cell. for example: classes = [Math;Science;English]
my ultimate goal is to have it display:
| Classes: Math (10 spaces) Science (10 spaces) English |
Also for each student the number of classes they are taking changes so that adds another layer to the problem.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

use fprintf() or sprintf() is easier. Check the help of sprintf() for format details.
