Errors caused by UITABLE

For some computers, we're getting errors whenever we try to use a UITABLE—either with a GUIDE-designed figure, or just typing 'uitable' in the Command Window. The three computers on which this has happened have the following version information:

MATLAB Version 7.11.0.584 (R2010b) / Mac OS X (10.6.8) / Java 1.6.0_17

MATLAB Version 7.12.0.635 (R2011a) / Mac OS X (10.6.8) / Java 1.6.0_26

MATLAB Version 7.11.0.584 (R2010b) / Mac OS X (10.6.8) / Java 1.6.0_26*

MATLAB Version 7.11.0.584 (R2011b) / Mac OS X (10.6.8) / Java 1.6.0_26*

*Same computer, but before and after the MATLAB upgrade.

But, there's no problem at all for most other computers, including the following system for all versions from R2009b–R2011b: Mac OS X (10.6.8) / Java 1.6.0_26

Here's the error after 'uitable' is typed into the Command Window:

--------------------------------------

Any ideas on how to fix this? Or, if anyone has ideas about how to 'catch' this sort of error, that would be great. Try/catch doesn't do the trick.

Thanks!

Hi,

Did you manage to solve this problem ? I have the same problem using Matlab 2012b on Windows7 but not when I use it on a Unix server.

Thanks,
