how to plot streamline

I have the 2-D PIV data like below and I am not able to get streamlines in matlab:
ix,iy,iz = image coordinate X,Y,Z [pixel]
dx = displacement component X [pixel] * (image resoltion) = mm
dy = displacement component Y [pixel] * (image resoltion) = mm
--------------------------------------------------
So I have dx and dy in mm. Also I can calculate: du = dx/dt , dv = dy/dt as the velocities in x and y directions.
I want to get the streamline usnig streamline/streamslice functions in matlab but I do not know how to define startx and starty?? Should I use meshgrid function for that? and shoul I use ix,iy(image coordinates) OR dx,dy to define startx and starty points?
Moreover do I need to define meshgrid for du,dv to fill velocities for every point??
Any help would be appreciated.
A = xlsread(......myfile.xls); % myfile.xls contains all data.
dx = A(1:end,4); % size(dx) = 8400*1
dy = A(1:end,5); % size(dy) = 8400*1
du = A(1:end,6); % size(du) = 8400*1
dv = A(1:end,7); % size(dv) = 8400*1
[startx,starty] = ?????
[X,Y] = meshgrid(dx,dy);
streamline(X,Y,du,dy,startx,starty);

The streamline/streamslice gave me an error stating that U,V should be 3D data. How can I make those in 3D?

Try:
skip = 2 ; % can be changed
startx = X(1:skip:end,1:skip:end) ;
starty = Y(1:skip:end,1:skip:end) ;
streamline(X,Y,du,dy,startx,starty);
Also have a look on streamslice. This would be a better function to use.

Thanks for replying KSSV.
It gave me an error for the size of du and dv. Shouldn't be du and dv in the same size of X,Y? X and Y are now a grid but du,dv are both have one column.
size(X) = size(Y) = 8400*8400
size(du) = size(dv) = 8400*1
Is this true for input argument for "streamline" function:
streamline(x displacement,y displacement,velocity in x direction,velocity in y direction)??
(x,y) are locations at which you have velocitties (u,v). If you don't have locations you can plot w.r.t indices.

Share your data.

Here is my data. Thanks for your attempt.
ERROR:
Error using streamslice (line 142)
Volume data arguments must be 3-D arrays.

I wonder how to make du,dv in the same size of X,Y? should I use reshape or repmat to make du and dv in the same size of X,Y( made by meshgrid(dx,dy) )?
otherwise the streamline are not achievable.
T = readtable('https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/687023/ane1_data.xlsx.xlsx') ;
T(8447,:) =[] ; % remove NaNs
x = T.(1) ; y = T.(2) ;
dx = T.(4) ; dy = T.(5) ;
[X,Y] = meshgrid(linspace(min(x),max(x)),linspace(min(y),max(y))) ;
dX = griddata(x,y,dx,X,Y) ;
dY = griddata(x,y,dy,X,Y) ;
streamslice(X,Y,dX,dY)
Awesome, Many thank to you. This is what I was looking for. Much appreciate.
I tried "streamline" function but no luck. How does it work with these data?
T = readtable('https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/687023/ane1_data.xlsx.xlsx') ;
T(8447,:) =[] ; % remove NaNs
x = T.(1) ; y = T.(2) ;
dx = T.(4) ; dy = T.(5) ;
[X,Y] = meshgrid(linspace(min(x),max(x)),linspace(min(y),max(y))) ;
dX = griddata(x,y,dx,X,Y) ;
dY = griddata(x,y,dy,X,Y) ;
streamline(X,Y,dX,dY,X,Y)
And thanks is accepting/ voting the answer.
