Hi David,
I believe you have a table which consists of several other tables. You want to convert one of those table into a vector array.
You can use "table2array" function in ordert o acheive the above functionality. For example:
% Define the table within a table
tableInTable = table({table(1:3, 'VariableNames', {'a'}); table(4:6, 'VariableNames', {'b'})},...
'VariableNames', {'NestedTable'});
% Convert the table within a table to a column vector
columnVector = table2array(tableInTable.NestedTable{1})
Hope this answers your query.
Regards,
Tushar

columnVector = table2array(BCG_data_table_converted(1,1));
columnVector = cell2mat(columnVector);
I tried the above, the first line work, reurning a 1x1 cell, however, the second line does not work
