addressing elements in a cell aray of cells

I cannot figure out how to address and replace individual elements of the inner cell array in the following toy example:

sub(1,:) = {'Jeff',{'eeg1','eeg2'}}; % sets up a cell array with string and an embedded CA

new(1,:) = sub(1,:) % make a copy

new{1,2}(2) = cell('eeg3') % attempt to change one value

Error using cell Conversion to cell from char is not possible.

Error in test_cell (line 27) new{1,2}(2) = cell('eeg3')

I also tried with out the cell() and it still complains. Thanks, -Jeff

Not sure what your actual desired outcome is, but this syntax works to replace the 'eeg2' with 'eeg3':

new{1,2}(2) = {'eeg3'}

If that is not the outcome you want, please post exactly what you want the result to be and we can help with the syntax.
