    Hi Priya,

    You can use <Input> control. Set its property editable="true" to allow editing and false to display normal text.

    <Input type="Text" editable="true"></Input>

      Hi Priya,

      Either you can Disable or set Editable to false. As given below. If you want to Text field then use two fields in a table cell and play hide/visible with both by binding same property to them. You can do this in Change event of input field. As given below.

      <Input type="Text" editable="true" change="myFunction"></Input>

myFunction : function(oEvent){
    oEvent.getSource().setEditable(false);
    oEvent.getSource().setEnabled(false);
}

      Hi Priya,

      Inside table cell put something like first sell with HorizontalLayout.

      <ColumnListItem vAlign="Middle">
	<cells>
	        <l:HorizontalLayout>
			<Text text="{GTMdl>Class}" visible="{GTMdl>DisFldVis}"/>
	           	<Input type="Text" visible="{GTMdl>CrtFldVis}"></Input>
		</l:HorizontalLayout>
		<Text text="{GTMdl>Class}" />
	        <Text text="{GTMdl>Age}" />
		<Text text="{GTMdl>Version}" />
	</cells>
</ColumnListItem>

      And your model data goes like this

      var oNVData = [{
			//Other Fields
			CrtFldVis : false, //flag for visibility of Create Fields
			DisFldVis : true   //flag for visibility of Display Fields
		},{
			//Other Fields
			CrtFldVis : false,
			DisFldVis : true
		},{
			//Other Fields
			CrtFldVis : false,
			DisFldVis : true
		}];
var oJson = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel({"GTData":oNVData});
this.getView().setModel(oJson, "GTMdl");

      Controller code on click of your text :

      VisCrtFld : function(oEvent) {
		//this.getModel("GTMdl")
//		debugger;
		var sPath = oEvent.getSource().getBindingContext("GTMdl").getPath();
		this.getView().getModel("GTMdl").setProperty(sPath+"/CrtFldVis", true);
		this.getView().getModel("GTMdl").setProperty(sPath+"/DisFldVis", false);
	}

      Tested and Working.

      If you have any doubts please ping me on my linkedIn

    Hi Priya,

    You should use Input control for text editing. It has a property to make it non editable as well. - property name: editable and possible values are true or false.

    You can learn more about input control at below given link.
