I am new in using matlab so this might be easy. I am trying to make an iris dataset neural network in matlab using nntool(feed-forward back propagation network). but i cant find out what the target matrix should be. I also am trying to find (tried to create but still did nothing) a code for programming the same thing instead of using nntools. Can anyone help me out?

The targets are the correct class labels. However, the Fisher iris dataset in Matlab has its target data in an cell array of strings (species), while nntool wants a numerical vector. So you'll have to convert it.

clear all;
load('fisheriris');
classnames = unique(species);
targets = zeros(1, numel(species));
for i = 1:3
    class(strcmp(species, classnames{i})) = i;
end

You now have a vector targets that can be loaded in nntool.
