The csv file contains non-numeric values also, but I need a numeric column to read out.

csvread only reads in numeric data, so if you do have non-numeric data you can use xlsread on the csv file. There are other lower level options such as textcan which will allow you to specify the format of the data.
If I understand your question properly the data is numeric, but you want the literal string representation of these values? If this is the case consider num2cell.
