datestring in uitable problem with cells array

1 view (last 30 days)
I want to display a cell array in uitable, if I define, for example
c={'01-Feb-2008' 458;'08-Jun-2009' 5}
then
uitable('Data',c) it works correctly
while if I have something like this
c={cellstr(datestr(data_between_dates(1:2,1),'dd-mm-yyyy')) ,data_between_dates(1:2,2)}
where data_between_dates has a first column of datenum but I want to display date strings, then I get the following error:
Error using uitable Values within a cell array must be numeric, logical, or char
Error in uitable (line 52) thandle = builtin('uitable', varargin{:});
What's wrong? Thanks.

Is a matrix of 4 columns with datenum as first column (below first three rows):
733529,246527778 101 17 229
733529,250000000 114 17 229
733529,253472222 126 18 229

Use
dates=cellstr(datestr(data_between_dates(1:2,1),'dd-mm-yyyy'))
data=num2cell(data_between_dates(1:2,2))
c=[dates data]

c = {cellstr(...
This creates a cell, whose first element is a cell string, not a string, like:
c = {{'string'}, ...}
But UITABLE can handle strings only.
