Thanks in Advance

                     for i=1:16
				eval(['set(handles.PwrBlg' num2str(i) ',''String'',G_PB)']);
			end

Answer 1

Do NOT use eval for trivial code like this!

Much better is to read the documentation on dynamic fieldnames:

https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_prog/generate-field-names-from-variables.html

For your code, something like this:

fld = sprintf('PwrBlg%d',i);
set(handles.(fld),'String',G_PB)
