tabstr2struct

  TABSTR2STRUCT - convert a tab-separated set of strings to a STRUCT entry

  A = TABSTR2STRUCT(S, FIELDS)

  Given a cell array of strings FIELDS of field names, creates a STRUCT
  array where the values of each field are specified in a tab-delimited string.

  Each string is first examined to see if it is a number (using STR2NUM).
  If so, then the value is stored as a double. Otherwise, the value is
  stored as a string.

  Exceptions: 
    a) If the string happens to have two '/' characters or matches the form yyyy-dd-mm, then it is
       assumed to be a date and is interpreted as a string.

    b) If the string should happen to be correspond to a non-numeric object in Matlab,
       we assume the user wants to specify the string rather than an empty matlab 
       type (for example, STR2NUM('struct') yields an empty structure).

  Example:
    s = ['5' char(9) 'my string data'];
    fn = {'fielda','fieldb'};
    a = tabstr2struct(s,fn)
