I do not understand any of the answers that I find. I need a good technician, such as MW Tech Support to call me in the USA at 678 603 1334

All of the experts in Matlab, data manipulation, and matrix manipulation regularly answer questions here. You might try posting something about what you need this matrix for, where you are getting your data, or what you are trying to accomplish in general, and then some of the experts may be able to help you find a feasible solution. If you are being vague due to confidentiality worries, you can probably get around that by using fake values. For example, in one of my questions instead of using the actual category names that I was using, I used names like "apple","cat", and "elephant".
If they have more information, they may be able to find a solution. For example, maybe your data really does have a dimension of 100,000x100,000x100,000, but maybe this data could be accessed differently so that you are only working with 100,000x100,000 pieces at a time, and then looping through that 100,000 times to cover all dimensions. The more information you are able to provide will probably increase the probability that someone can help you find an elegant solution.

You do not need a technician. You need at least 8 petabytes ( bytes) of memory for your matrix alone (double precision).
Good luck with that!

You can try contacting Technical Support using the Contact Us link in the upper-right corner of this page, but they'll likely give you the same answer I did in response to the question you posted here.
