Performing a number search in an excel with read table

I have this script where input of edit8 is a number and the column IND is : 41x1 1812 table

T = readtable('BD\prices.xlsx');%read excel

item = (get(handles.edit8,'String'));%get the number from user

FinalTable = T(T.IND == item,:);%where IND is the header of 33rd column

data = cell2table(FinalTable);%converting to table

set(handles.uitable1, 'Data', data);%display in uitable allrowsthat contain in IND column number in item

and the error:

Error using ==

FinalTable = T(T.IND == item,:);%where IND is the header of 33rd column

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

FinalTable = T(strmp(T.IND, item), :);%where IND is the header of 33rd column

The result will be a table, not a cell.
