Data={'020';'1014';,000'};
how i can change those into each value in one column except 1014 which i want to store as 1 for one column and 0 for one column but 14 in one column as pair.

A simple one-line solution using sscanf inside of cellfun and cell2mat:
>> Data={'020';'1014';'000'};
>> cell2mat(cellfun(@(s)sscanf(s,'%1f%1f%f'),Data, 'UniformOutput',false))
ans =
   0
   2
   0
   1
   0
  14
   0
   0
   0
Note the format string used in sscanf: the %1f token parses just one character, thus allowing the automatic parsing of the first two characters individually.
