import *.dat and delete space at last column

2 views (last 30 days)
Hi all, my problem is: I want import *.txt (attach file) or *.dat to Matlab *.dat has seven columns and at in last column are numbers and sometimes text (No data) and I need delete this space so output will (Nodata). For export I use this:
number=35;
fid = fopen('zkusebni.txt', 'r' );
h2 = textscan( fid, '%s%s%s%s%s%s%s',number,'CollectOutput', true );
fclose(fid);
C2 = [h2{:}];
C2 = cat(1,h2{:});
When I export this data by my function I get one more row where is in first column is writen (Data) and other columns are empty. So my goal is: I want have same count row like previously without this parasit row (I think I have to change something in h2=textscan()). If is not my text clear look at comments I upload two *.mat what I have from import zkusebni.txt and what I want :) Thank you for your response.

Yes this is my goal...but from my code I get have_it.mat. I will have want_it.mat only when I mananually delete space between No data. zkusebni.txt is only sample from my full file. Full file has 621580 rows so I cant delete space between No data manually everywhere :)
