    <p><strong>1. How do I read in this data properly so that the date parses properly?</strong> I am trying to concatenate strings I read from a file but the output I get is mixed up. The output is the x axis.Also, the spacing from x axis has numbers instead of the string I want. The file has 4 columns,date,time,temperature and value. The date is "01.01.2013 " and the time "09:08:02"</p> <p>Also, if I want to use only first column (with date) how can I do this? Because using datenum(mydata{1}) results to "Cannot parse date 01.01.2013"</p> <pre><code>... mydata = textscan(fid, '%s %s %f %f', 'delimiter',';', 'HeaderLines',1); date={}; temp={}; .. date{1}=datenum( strcat(mydata{1},{' '},mydata{2}) ); ... </code></pre> <p><strong>2. How do I correct the axis ticks?</strong> </p> <p>I am then trying to plot data using plotyy and want the x-axis to be the date, but I am getting two different axis labels.</p> <p>Here is the code I am using:</p> <pre><code>temp = mydata{4}; plotyy(date,temp,date,2*temp); datetick('x','mmm.dd,yyyy'); </code></pre> <p>Here is the resulting image:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/tpYGR.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>---------------UPDATE---------------------------------------</p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>fid = fopen('test2.txt','r'); mydata = textscan(fid, '%s %s %f %f', 'delimiter',';', 'HeaderLines',1); fclose(fid); date=datenum( strcat(mydata{1},{' '},mydata{2}),'mmm.dd,yyyy HH:MM:SS' ); temperature=mydata{3}; value=mydata{4}; [AX,H1,H2]=plotyy(date,temperature,date,value,'plot'); set(get(AX(1),'Ylabel'),'String','Temperatures'); set(get(AX(2),'Ylabel'),'String','Value'); set(H1,'LineStyle','--'); set(H2,'LineStyle',':'); datetick(AX(1),'x','mmm.dd,yyyy'); title('Temperatures - Values'); xlabel('Date') </code></pre> <p>and the file</p> <pre><code>Date;Time;Temp;value Jan.01,2013; 11:00:00;20;10 Feb.08,2013; 12:00:00;23;11 Mar.04,2013; 04:02:00;24;15 Apr.10,2013; 08:04:00;28;20 May.10,2013; 12:05:00;32;30 Jun.04,2013; 10:06:0;33;27 </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
