cell to matrix

I have a data set which is in a cell structure (<1x20>) I want to place all of the data into one matrix. As each of the data sets in this cell structure is of different size, such as the first one is: 61169x15 and the second is 59529x15 and so on... i'm trying to find a way of combining the cells into a matrix. I can do this manually by:
new_data=[data1;data2;data3;data4]
But i would like to run the same script for other data sets therefore am looking for a way of doing this in a loop. Is that possible? So, I was thinking of a loop which ran though the cells i.e. for i=1:size(data,2) %=1:20
and then applying the same process as above in the loop, but im not sure on how I would go about doing this.
thanks

Please by careful with the term "structure". It is often confused with "STRUCT" array.

If all cell elements have teh same number of columns:
new_data = cat(1, data{:});

@ricco: This is not possible. If all the arrays in the cell have the same number of columns, they can be concatenated using CAT(1, C{:}) or CELL2MAT(C'). If this does not work for your problem, the number of columns must be different. Please check this again:
cellfun('size', data, 2)

If all cells have the same number of columns, would this help?
a{1}=rand(3,2);
a{2}=rand(4,2);
a{3}=rand(5,2);
cell2mat(a')

@ricco: No, the type of the cell elements does not matter - btw.: Fangjun's data are DOUBLEs also. But the dimensions must be matching. While "cell2mat(a')" works, "cell2mat(a)" must fail.

From your description, it seems like all of your data sets have the same number of columns, and varying number of rows. In your for loop, append your current dataset to your existing matrix:
for i=1:length(data),
new_data=[new_data;data{i}]
end

@Ora Zyto: The loop let the array grow in each iteration. This is very inefficient.
