Nucleotides import- not from database

I am trying to input a nucleotide squence that is not from the NCBI database. What format does it need to be in and what codes do I need? I currently have it in an xlsx file where each character is in a row of the same column, or in a word doc where the characters are viewed as a single "word".

Based on the information you've provided, I would import the data directly from Excel as you currently have it formatted. You can read more about those options here. You can then make further adjustments to the format of the data directly in MATLAB, if that is necessary for your subsequent needs.
