I created a GUI table with tag "table_handle" using GUIDE. Now how can I enter data into that table? According to the examples, I should be able to use uitable(handles.table_handle, 'Data', dataMatrix), where dataMatrix is the data that I want to enter into the table. However, I get the error undefined function or variable 'table_handle'.
If I replace handles.table_handle with gcf, the table is plopped in the middle of my current window; at least it displays, but I need it to be displayed in it's preset location.
Another problem that I have is that I can not change the default size of the table. In GUIDE, when I open "property inspector", "Data", it shows that there are four rows. If I delete the last three and hit apply, those rows just come back. How can I choose my own dimensions for this table?
thanks.

It should be
set(handles.table_handle, 'Data', dataMatrix)

dataMatrix is a 5 by 1 matrix. Those entries are filled into the table, but there is still an extra column that is just empty. Also, the fifth column is not added until AFTER the program is run. It should be able to display the correct default dimensions before the program is run and then just fill in the values when it is ready.

Is dataMatrix a matrix or a function?
