You cannot show symbolic objects in a uitable. In uitable, you can only show numbers and text. You can find the text representation of a symbolic object by using char() on the object. But remember, that will return text, not a symbolic object, so you will not be able to use the text as a symbolic object.

uicontrol('Style','text', 'String', cellstr(char(a)) )
(You will want to add a Position parameter in to that of course.)
If you use instead use 'Style', 'edit', be sure to set 'Max' to at least 2. Another hint is if you want non-editable text but you want it to be vertically scrollable, then instead of using 'Style', 'text', use 'Style', 'edit', 'Max', 2, 'Enable', 'disable'

Big Thank You Mr. Walter Roberson,
cellstr(char(a)) is the best command ever :-).
