I would like to import some commands from Excel into for loop and then execute these commands. These commands have different lengths that is why I need several loops for those lengths.
Can anybody help me please??

Have you read the documentation?
You could start with xlsread() or readtable().

We probably can help you. So read this link and then get back to us with a file attached, and what commands you'd like to execute on the imported data. But does your Excel file have numerical data in it, or the actual commands themselves?
If the commands you want to execute are actually text in the Excel cells, for example cell A1 has msgbox('Hello from Excel') in it and you want to execute
msgbox('Hello from Excel')
then you'll have to use eval().
[numbers, commands, raw] = xlsread(filename);
% Execute command in cell A1
eval(commands(1,1));

It looks like you're building a cell array from a ton of variables. You didn't attach your workbook so I can't see what's in it. And you also didn't even show the code where you called xlsread() or readtable() to read in the workbook. I can't help, given what you've supplied (so far).
