How do you create a push button that saves data from a GUI?

How to do it?

deenessen - you haven't given us much to work on, but presumably your GUI has a button that, when pushed, you want to save some data to an Excel file. Assuming that GUIDE is being used, then your pushbutton callback would look like

function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to pushbutton1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

% get and format your data
myData = randi(42, 10,3);

% write your data to file
writematrix('myFile.xlsx', myData);

Depending upon your version of MATLAB, you could use writematrix or xlswrite.

Infact i want to store data such as a bill balance into an excel file just by clicking on the pushbutton @geoff

[Geoff Hayes]

Well where does the bill balance data come from? What format should it be in?

[deenessen armoogum]

@Geoff There will be a edit box in which i will insert the balance bill and then the pushbutton should store it in the excel file

[Geoff Hayes]

Is this just one value or will it change over time (and so you will need to store the new value in the spreadsheet)? Try writing the code to do this.

@Geoff it will change over time Can you plz give me a hint how to write it or a sample on how it should look thks in advance sir

[Geoff Hayes]

deenessen - but what have you tried so far? Have you designed your GUI? Have you used GUIDE, App Designer, or programmatically created the GUI?

[deenessen armoogum]

Programmatically use gui I have already created the edit box and pushbutton so far

[Geoff Hayes]

Do you have the callback for the pushbutton? Please share some of your code.

[deenessen armoogum]

I want to put all the coding in the pushbutton
