I'm trying to eliminate an entire row of data if a string is found in the cell array.
Sample array values:
myarray =
[ 16] '10/05/2011' '11:20' 'waiting' 'nopos' [ 10000]
[ 17] '10/05/2011' '11:25' 'open' 'long' [ 0]
[ 34] '10/05/2011' '12:50' 'open' 'short' [ 0]
so i'd like to have:
my array =
[ 17] '10/05/2011' '11:25' 'open' 'long' [ 0]
[ 34] '10/05/2011' '12:50' 'open' 'short' [ 0]
there can be several occurances in the array, I'm not looking to pop the top row...
you help is greatly appreciated

So which element in the cell array are you checking for the string? In column 4 or column 5, or something else.

array(strcmp(array(:, 4), 'waiting'), :) = [];

If it can occur anywhere, use cellfun to test for equality:
[I, ~] = find(cellfun(@(s) isequal(s, 'waiting'), myarray));
myarray(I, :) = [];
otherwise, you can pull out the column of interest and use ismember
I = ismember(myarray(:, 4), 'waiting')
myarray(I, :) = [];

And yes, just checked - for a cell array vector of 100000 strings, on my computer strcmp takes 0.01 seconds, whereas ismember takes 0.03 :)

0.02 seconds lost. But if you do this 10e6 times... :-)
I've overseen, that your FIND command operates on a matrix. Then the 2nd omitted output does matter, as you have written.
