Index Exceed Marix Dimensions

Hello, I am trying to repopulate an input dialog box with answers the user previously put in. I am saving the file correctly but when I try and load the answers I am getting the error index exceed matrix dimensions. I think that it is a +1 or -1 error, can someone look at the code and help with debugging and give an explanation for this problem, thank you.

PrefFile = fullfile(prefdir, 'MyGUI.pref'); 

if exist(PrefFile, 'file')

   FileData = load(PrefFile, '-MAT');
   cell_FileData = struct2cell(FileData);

    for i=1:NumQuest;
        set(EditHandle(i),'String', cell_FileData{1,i});
        NumQuest - 1;
    end                       
  end

So my problem is in cell_FileData it is a 1 x X cell I don't think that it is stepping forward with the rest of the program is there a way to fix it?

Either cell_FileData is shorter than NumQuest or EditHandle is.

If X<NumQuest there is nowhere for it to step forward. Are you sure your loop is supposed to run from 1 to NumQuest, or is it in fact supposed to go from 1 to X?
