Matlab read table of values

I have a table of data. Column 1 is a building ID #. Column 2-7 are contact names. Data is entered such that the building ID# could repeat. I'm looking to pull names from column 2-7 for each building ID #. So row 1-5 maybe building 100 and row 6 and 7, are building 101. It is unknown how many rows are duplicate building #'s. In the end, i'd like to create an output for each building # that cintains all the names from column 2-7 for each row the building # was the same. Make sense?

Hi Sudo,
Does the following solution solve your problem?
>> BuildingID = [100;100;100;100;100;101;101];
>> column2 = ["A";"B";"C";"D";"E";"F";"G"];
>> t = table(BuildingID, column2, column2, column2, column2, column2, column2, 'VariableNames',{'BuildingID' 'column2' 'column3' 'column4' 'column5' 'column6' 'column7'})
t =
7×7 table
BuildingID column2 column3 column4 column5 column6 column7
