Using this, I obtained data as a 1x1 cell in the workspace.

fid = fopen('mylist2.txt');

data = textscan(fid,'%s');

fclose(fid);

Using this, I obtained words5 as a 1x111022 char array in the workspace.

fileID = fopen('mylist.odt','r');

formatSpec = '%s';

words5 = fscanf(fileID,formatSpec);

fileName = '<your full file path here>'
% my sample text contains ---> apple, baseball, car, donut, & elephant in single column.
FID = fopen(fileName);
data = textscan(FID,'%s');
fclose(FID);
stringData = string(data{:});

Output:

stringData = 
  5×1 string array
    "apple"
    "baseball"
    "car"
    "donut"
    "elephant"

I got it! I just had to copy and paste the column into notepad as a regular .txt file. Thank you so much!

not a problem! try this just for fun.

odtFile = '<full filepath for file';
txtFile = fullfile(fileparts(odtFile),'TextVersion.txt');
copyfile(odtFile,txtFile);
fileName = txtFile;
...
...
<your script>

and then try runing your code. That way, you wont have to copy paste.
