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);

FID = fopen(fileName);
data = textscan(FID,'%s');

stringData = string(data{:});
Output:

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.
