Textfield upates from controller but when put into column no longer updates

Question

This textfield is updated by my controller triggered by an event elsewhere
var oTotalMonday2 = new sap.ui.commons.TextField({
id : "oTotalMonday2",
"text" : '0',
width : "20px"
var oHL = new sap.ui.layout.HorizontalLayout({
content : [ oTotalMonday2]
aControls.push(oHL);
this is the method in the controller that updates it
handlePressMonday: function(){
var oTable = sap.ui.getCore().byId('entriesTab');
    var nRows= oTable.getBinding("rows").getLength();
    var nSum= 0;
    for(var i=0;i<nRows;i++){
    var oContext= oTable.getContextByIndex(i);
    nSum+= parseFloat(oContext.getProperty("monday"));
    var oLabel= sap.ui.getCore().byId("oTotalMonday2");
    oLabel.setText(nSum);
But when I put the exact same code for the text in a column for my table
oTable4.addColumn(new sap.ui.table.Column({
label : new sap.ui.commons.Label({
text : "Monday"
template : oTotalMonday2,
sortProperty : "monday",
filterProperty : "monday",
width : "60px"
nothing happens, doesn't update the value, I don't understand why doesn't it work when its in a column? But works fine it's standalone in a horizontal layout

Answer 1

Hi Stam
You are creating a template in a column hence
var oLabel= sap.ui.getCore().byId("oTotalMonday2");
will not work.
Maybe you can briefly explain what you wish to do and we can help.
Thanks
