Thread Subject: setting uitable cell choice list during run-time

Hello Folks,

I have created a uitable using GUIDE's uitable "Table Property Editor" during design time. I have made several columns "Choice Lists" to set the dates. The first column choice list is a static list of months (e.g. Jan, Feb, Mar etc). I would like to set the second choice list column to reflect the number of days of the month that the user chooses from the first choice list (during run-time). Essentially I need to know how to access an individual uitable cells' choice list property in order to populate the list based on the value of another choice list during run-time.

I am having a similar issue. That is, I need to access the uitable choice lists during run time. Did you ever resolve your problem? If so how?

one of the solutions is outlined below

% create a test function, eg, UT.M, with content
function uh=utbl
     uh=uitable(gcf,...
          'data',num2cell(magic(3)),...
          'cellselectioncallback',@ut_sel_cb);
end
function ut_sel_cb(h,e)
     c=get(h,'data');
     set(h,'userdata',c{e.Indices(1),e.Indices(2)});
     disp(get(h,'userdata')); % <- remove this later...
end

% at the command prompt
     uh=ut;
% click on a cell, eg, [2,3]
% 7 % <- in the command window from the DISP command...
     csel=get(uh,'userdata');
% csel = 7

Not quite the problem I am trying to resolve.
What I need to do is access and modify the choice list for each cell in a uitable that was generated in guide.
I have 80 cells in one uitable that each have a choice list with 30 choices. What I want to do is add an additional choice (I.e. 30->31 choices) and update the choice list of all 80 cells.

Thanks for the amazingly fast reply though.

Sorry, there is an error in my last post. I need to modify each cell's choice list independently. I.e. not every cell in the uitable has the same choice list.
