How to solve: Index of element to remove exceeds matrix dimensions error

This is my code:

>> fid=fopen('HG-U133_Plus_2_annotation.txt', 'r')

fid =

       4

>> ftext=textscan(fid, '%q%q%q%q');
>> fclose(fid);
>> AffyID=ftext{1};
>> GeneID=ftext{2};
>> EntID=ftext{3};
>> genesymbols=cell(probeData.NumProbeSets, 1);
>> EntrezID=cell(probeData.NumProbeSets, 1);
>> for i=1: probeData.NumProbeSets
idx=strcmp(probeData.ProbeSetIDs{i}, AffyID);
genesymbols{i}=GeneID{idx};
EntrezID{i}=EntID{idx};
end

>> house=strmatch('AFFX',probeData.ProbeSetIDs);
>> genesymbols(house)=[];
>> EntrezID(house)=[];
>> mle_exp(house,:)=[];

as soon as I enter 'mle_exp(house,:)=[];' I receive the error:

Index of element to remove exceeds matrix dimensions.

Many thanks for your help,

I don't see mle_exp created anywhere in your code prior to the line that indexes into it.
