Extract variable from .mat files

Hello,
I have mutiple .mat files which I am running in a for loop. I want to extract the data from the specific variable of .mat file. I tried .variable commond, but it didnot work. Could you please suggest me which commond will I use in this case?.
Here is the attached code:
S = dir('*.mat');
LT= [];
for i=1:length(S)
disp(S(i).name)
T = readtable((S(i).name.(A));
Where, A is the vaiable from which I want to extract the data and all .mat files are in tabular format.
Br,
Haresh Kumar

I think I understand what you mean. You will have to use load to load a variable from a mat file:
S = dir('*.mat');
LT= [];
for n=1:length(S)
A=load(fullfile(S(n).folder,S(n).name));
T=A.A;
%remainder of your code here
end

Thanks for the comment. I guess I shouldn't edit code on autopilot (I always load to S). I'll edit my answer.

D = 'absolute/relative path to the folder where the files are saved';
S = dir(fullfile(D,'*.mat'));
for k = 1:numel(S)
F = fullfile(D,S(k).name);
T = load(F);
T.A
end
