In order to access the data from a table, use the entry function.

>> tableEntryOut = entry(tableObj,row,column)

It returns the table entry for the specified column of the specified row.

This doesn't output the data in the table entry. It outputs a table property cell instead.

>> tableEntryOut = entry(thetable,1,1)

tableEntryOut = 

  TableEntry with properties:

             RowSpan: []
             ColSpan: []
              VAlign: []
              Border: []
         BorderColor: []
         BorderWidth: []
         InnerMargin: []
         Hyphenation: []
           StyleName: []
               Style: {[1×1 mlreportgen.dom.Width]}
    CustomAttributes: []
              Parent: [1×1 mlreportgen.dom.TableRow]
            Children: [1×1 mlreportgen.dom.Text]
                 Tag: 'dom.TableEntry:37473'
                  Id: '37473'

Hey, I've mistankely missed in my previous reply that a Table Entry function only returns a mlreportgen.dom.TableEntry Object. To retreive the element from this object, use:

>> val = tableEntryOut.Children.Content

Thank you, Sunil !

Can you also help on keeping the table in the same page (basically avoid a page break in the middle of the table)? This is an important topic for our report project.
