How to create gui objects based on user input??(dynamically)

for example if user inputs 5 in a edit text box then it must display 5 edit text boxes from which i can collect data...

How about using a uitable instead?
doc uitable
Else use a for-loop to build n edit boxes where n is constrained to be below some large number.

"Else use a for-loop to build n edit boxes where n is constrained to be below some large number."
how to create the edit boxes using commands??? i created them using GUIDE
Then change their 'visible' property 'on'/'off'. But let me reirterate - I think a uitable or perhaps an input dialog (doc inputdlg) are a better approach.
Thanks dude... i'll work on it!!

edit_handles = zeros(n,1);
for K = 1 : n
edit_handles(K) = uitable('Style','edit','Units','normalized', [(K-1)/n, 0, 1/n, 1]);
end
