% Calculation of PGA Values for Individual Earthquake
load Histories/IND.X0kY-1k.CXY.sema;
PGA_EQ(1,1) = max(IND.X0kY-1k.CXY(:,1));
But it shows a different error.
>>>>>> "Unexpected MATLAB expression"

To create the variable name, load precedes any leading underscores or digits in filename with an X and replaces any other nonalphabetic characters with underscores
So IND.X0kY-1k.CXY.sema would result in the creation of variable named IND_X0kY_1k_CXY (file extension is removed)

You may want to try the functional form instead.
load('Histories/IND.X0kY-1k.CXY.sema');
Also, what variables are in your workspace after loading? You will not have a variable named IND.X0kY-1k.CXY (which it seems you are trying to use), because that is not a valid variable name.
