How to copy all the data from a 4284×4 table in the command window when it doesn't all show up?

Is there a quick way for doing so?

Why are you copying so much data?

The usual, recommended, easy way to import and export data is to use the import/export routines:

What is you particular use-case that prevents you from using the standard import/export routines?

If you do not wish to export the data and prefer to view the table in MATLAB itself, you can use the clipboard function to copy the contents of the table to the clipboard and then paste it into a text editor or spreadsheet program.

The documentation page for the clipboard function can be found here.

Note that in some cases, the clipboard function may not work if the table is too large to fit in memory.
