Hello there, I am using Matlab 2019a and use app designer and I have problem with importing dates from csv file and plot them from uitable. This is my code
First Button
[filename,path] = uigetfile(...
{'*.csv', 'Text file CSV (*.csv)'}, 'Load File', 'MultiSelect', 'on');
onefile = readtable(filename, 'Delimiter', '\t ;', 'MultipleDelimsAsOne', true);
app.uitable1.Data = onefile;
setappdata(0,'table',onefile);
Second Button
T = getappdata(0, 'table');
A = table2cell(T);
ydata1 = cellfun(@mean,A(:,3));
ydata2 = cellfun(@mean,A(:,7));
Times = cellfun(@mean,A(:,2));
str = convertCharsToStrings(A(:,1));
DateString = datestr(str);
DateNumber = datenum(DateString);
Dates = datetime(DateNumber, 'convertFrom', 'datenum','Format', 'dd.MM.yy HH:mm');
xdata = Dates + Times;
plot(app.axes1,xdata,ydata2);
It is doing that that convert the format and make the date March 2nd to February 3rd. I also tried table2timetable but it thinks that the column with dates is text so it doesnot work. So I have table which is in cell array and contains character. How can solve this please?I tried almost everything and look through this FAQs, but I still doesnot found that will helps me.

Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply, I also skipped the line with str and take data from table and now it is work.
So I thank you for your help. :)

Hi Sarlota
As far as I can tell from your question, the problem arises in the lines
DateString = datestr(str);
DateNumber = datenum(DateString);
As the conversion to DateString is unnecessary and does not hold the right options.
My solution would be to skip the conversion to a datestr and jump right onto the datenum, while setting the FormatIn for the datenum function to match your date format from the .csv
It seems that the correct line is:
DateNumber = datenum(str,'dd-mm-yyyy');
and just keeping the remaining code.

Sarlota, I recommend that you use datetime, and not use datenum or datestr at all. Especially do not do this
DateString = datestr(str);
DateNumber = datenum(DateString);
Dates = datetime(DateNumber, 'convertFrom', 'datenum','Format', 'dd.MM.yy HH:mm');
Just convert the text to datetime directly.
But there are some very funny things in your code and your file. You are using multiple delimiters in a file that is clearly semicolon delimited. And the file appears to have either one too many headers, or one too few data columns. And the date/time format you are using does not math what's i the file. You code is very complicated as a result - I think you are making you life too difficult. Let's assume the file is missing a column. I added a semicolon at the end of each data line, equivalent to having an empty field for the last column n the file. (Or maybe I should have deleted the 'current' in the header; I can't tell.) In your MATLAB release, try this
>> T = readtable('matlab.csv', 'Delimiter', ';')
T =
7×9 table

Your code does not seem to match what's in your file at all; all those lines involving cellfun in particular seem to not make any sense when I run it. But I would think that all you need at this point is
>> plot(TT.time,TT.current)

Hello, I used this delimiter '\t ;' because I had error and error sayed I must used that delimiter and when I used it, error disappeared. Then I did not know what to do with date and time so I converted table into cell so that is the reason why I used cellfun. I am a beginner so I need to learn a lot and I am trying some stuff you can see it above and then it works but yeah your sollution is much more easier I dont know why I dont do that before. I spent a lot of time to figure out how to do it, and I did my stupid sollution you can see above. So thank you that you looked at it and help me to see that the solution it can be much more easier.
