How to plot two columns when another column has a specified value

Hello

I have an excel file

I need to plot two of the columns when another column has a specified value(string)

The following code does not work, I want to have red circle when the 2nd column is "dipslip" and blue stars when 2nd column is "strikeslip"

filename = 'sim_result.xlsx';
sheet = 1;

[num,txt,raw]  = xlsread(filename,sheet) 

Area=cell2mat(raw(2:end,3));
moment=cell2mat(raw(2:end,5));
type=raw((2:end),2);

%scatter(cell2mat(raw(2:end,3)),cell2mat(raw(2:end,5)))
scatter(moment(type=='dipslip'),Area(type=='dipslip'),'or')
scatter(moment(type=='strikeslip'),Area(type=='strikeslip'),'sr')

How can I do this

Thank you

p.s. I can not use gscatter

idx1 = contains(type,'dipslip') ;
idx2 = contains(type,'strikeslip') ;
figure
hold on
plot(moment(idx1),Area(idx1),'Or')
plot(moment(idx2),Area(idx2),'sr')

If contains is not available, use strcmp

Thank you for fast help

I made a mistake sorry

my condition should be red when type is strikeslip and S is equal to 1

I would appriciate if you give me another advice

What ever ....you may make changes in the given code.

thank you

I got what I've needed with the following lines.is there any way to make it look more smarter

filename = 'sim_result.xlsx';
sheet = 1;
% xlRange = 'B2:C3';

[num,txt,raw]  = xlsread(filename,sheet) 
% subsetA = xlsread(filename,sheet,xlRange)

Area=cell2mat(raw(2:end,3));
moment=cell2mat(raw(2:end,5));
type=raw((2:end),2);
S=cell2mat(raw(2:end,1));

idx1 = contains(type,'dipslip') & S>1;
idx12 = contains(type,'dipslip') & S==1;
idx13 = contains(type,'dipslip') & S<1;
idx2 = contains(type,'strikeslip') & S>1;
idx21= contains(type,'strikeslip') & S==1;
idx22 = contains(type,'strikeslip') & S<1;
figure
hold on
plot(moment(idx1),Area(idx1),'Or')
plot(moment(idx12),Area(idx12),'Ob')
plot(moment(idx13),Area(idx13),'Og')
plot(moment(idx2),Area(idx2),'*r')
plot(moment(idx21),Area(idx21),'*b')
plot(moment(idx22),Area(idx22),'*g')
