Bubblesjinx - if t1 and t2 are character arrays, then your condition would be
if strcmp(t1, 'S100') && strcmp(t2, 'S102')
% do something
end
Use brackets instead of the braces {}.
To ensure that t1 and t2 are character arrays and not cells, then do
t1 = value{j};
t2 = value{j+1};
Note that how we index into cell arrays (using brackets or braces) determines the type of the retrieved element. Using brackets will give us a cell; using braces will give us the "native" data type of the object in that cell.
