CellEditCallback is triggered when the value of cell has changed. If you want to trigger an event when clicking the cell of table, you need to add callback of CellSelectionCallback.

In order to make drop down list in your Cmd column of the table, first you need to change import options of your excel file.
function LoadTableButtonPushed(app, event) opts = detectImportOptions('test1.xlsx'); % For importing Cmd column as char not double
opts.VariableTypes{8} = 'string'; % For importing Cmd column as string
t = readtable('test1.xlsx', opts); app.Table1.Data = t; app.Table1.ColumnName = t.Properties.VariableNames;endAnd here is a code to make Cmd column as categorical.
function Table1CellSelection(app, event) app.UITable.Data.Cmd = categorical(app.UITable.Data.Cmd, {'open', 'close'});endScreenshot is as the follows.
The only way I know how to change columns names within a table is by doing it within the code (see this link )
set(t, 'ColumnName', {'MT', 'MSTd', 'VIP', 'LIP'});which can't be done by the user directly using the GUI. Instead, you could create edit boxes above or on top of the uitable column headers where the user can edit them directly. Each of them could have a callback function that executes the set() command above so the ColumnName property is edited.
Another option would be to use the first row of the uitable as the header row and allow the columns to be editable by the user (which could result in other unintended consequences).
