Index exceeds matrix dimensions.

Hi, I'm trying to read the raw data from a txt file. Read the file as an array of strings. Then transfer string to num and get the year data. But it shows that the index exceeds matrix dimensions. Anyone help?

filename = input('Please enter the file name: ');  
fid01 = fopen(filename,'r');
for i = 6 : 414
    line = fgets(fid01);
    z = strread(line,'%s');
    year = str2num(z{1});
    disp(year)
end

Call fgetl() 4 times before the loop to read and throw away the first 4 header lines.
