using uiimport in a GUI

Hi guys,

i really enjoy all the options offered by uiimport like specifying the format of the columns (e.g. dates and decimal separator) and importing everything in a table. I try to embed it in a GUI but then uiimport just launch and does not stop, making the subsequent commands crash.

As http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/25677#answer_33637 suggests, I could just use an output argument to uiimport but then the uiimport window is very different and offer much less features as the enclosed image shows (no conversion offered).

How can i stop my program until the user is done using uiimport and also use the neat importation features?

Thank you very much for your help!

Regards,
