fprintf: writing text lists to .txt files

I need some help exporting some text lists in cell arrays to .txt functions. I have a list of names in an n x 1 array, called 'assets'. I would like to export it to a .txt file ('assets.txt'). My code currently states:
fid = fopen('assets.txt', 'w');
for row = 1:length(assets)
fprintf(fid, '%s\n', assets(row));
end
fclose(fid)
I get this error message: "Function is not defined for 'cell' inputs." What am I doing wrong?

You have to change round brackets into curly brackets:
assets = {'first','second','third','fourth'};
fid = fopen('assets.txt', 'w');
for row = 1:length(assets)
fprintf(fid, '%s\n', assets{row});
end
fclose(fid);
