I have a listbox in which one I would like to set as content the subfield names of a structure.
Example: 'Database' is the structure which have inside the fieldnames Car, Bus and Motorbike. These fieldnames are 1x1 struct (e.g Database.Car) and are used as subfields.
Then I want to create a listbox which contains the subfields and mantain this listbox updated since different subfields will be added.
Thanks in advance,

Here "Car" etc are the "fields", not the "subfields" (which would mean something like: DataBase.Vehicle.Car).
DataBase.Car = 1;
DataBase.Bus = 2;
DataBase.Motorbike = 3;
List = fieldnames(DataBase);
uicontrol('Style', 'listbox', 'String', List);
Keeping the listbox "updated" when the struct is changed, is very complicated. You need an object oriented approach to start a callback, when the data are changed. But you can fake it by not adding further fields manually, but when you use a dedicated function for this:
function S = myAddField(S, Field, Data)
S.(Field) = Data;
updateGui(S); % <-- Implementation depends on your GUI

I'm not sure what in St. Rita's House of Pancakes you are doing with your face, but it is distracting me from reading and focusing on your answer :)

@Jan, Hello Jan, I have still some problems with the listbox probably I misunderstund some concepts. As you told me before to show the fieldnames in the listbox content we need the next code:
List = fieldnames(DataBase);
uicontrol('Style', 'listbox', 'String', List);
but the 'uicontrol' command above should be located on the listbox_CreateFcn function? :
function listbox_CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)
or it is an independent way to set the listbox content? Because I tried in the listbox_CreateFcn and does not work.
Thank you for your time,
Regards

Problem solve, can be done inside the 'CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)' function as:
List = fieldnames(Database);
set(hObject,'String',List);
