I have some EMG data that I processed and I want to export it into an Excel file. Because I am running a loop to process through multiple trials I wanted to export them all to the same spreadsheet, adding to the columns. With what I am currently using it exports each trial as a new row, but I need the data to all be exported into the same rows. Is there a way to do this?
for x= 1:12
Name=(char(all_files(data_files_index(x))));
newfilename= erase(Name, '_Feb_27_2021_conditionedEMG.mat');
newname= erase(newfilename, 'Subject 5_VTAS');
JASA.filename = newfilename;
JASA.SCM_L_EA = muscle_SCM_L_EA; % SCM_L_EA_CC_JTTT_T1
JASA.SCM_R_EA= muscle_SCM_R_EA;
JASA.UNE_L_EA = muscle_UNE_L_EA;
JASA.UNE_R_EA= muscle_UNE_R_EA;
JASA.UTR_L_EA_ = muscle_UTR_L_EA;
JASA.UTR_R_EA= muscle_UTR_R_EA;
JASA.SCM_L_MDF_ = muscle_SCM_L_MDF;
JASA.SCM_R_MDF1 = muscle_SCM_R_MDF;
JASA.UNE_L_MDF = muscle_UNE_L_MDF;
JASA.UNE_R_MDF_CA = muscle_UNE_R_MDF;
JASA.UTR_L_MDF = muscle_UTR_L_MDF;
JASA.UTR_R_MDF = muscle_UTR_R_MDF;
% These variables change with each trial
T = struct2table(JASA);
writetable(T, 'SO5 Data.xlsx', "WriteMode", "append")

It looks like your issue using the append feature has to do with your data being a table. Try using writematrix with your data as a numerical array instead. Note this will not include your table variable names as headers, but should be achieveable by adding write step before you begin adding your data.
