How to access External Data using field's custom formula - visio

In order to reference a page's shapedata sheet, I use the =ThePage!Prop.[name] custom formula. What would be the equivalent to access external data?

When you drop row from External Data Window to your shape Visio application engine automatically create from this shape group and add into this group few shapes (text callouts)
Also Visio add to this text callouts user-defined cells and fill these cells data from row of External Data Window.

How do I refer the shape's data from sub-shape of Visio custom shape

I'm trying to design a custom shape in Visio.
My structure is like this:
In the "Edit Master" page I have some rectangles, I called my shape "MyDay", so that's its document's name in the Master Explorer and in the edit window.
My problem is, that I can't find a way to refer the shape's date itself (like =MyDay!Name() or =MyDay!User.MyUserField) from one of my sub-shapes.
If I add a reference to ThePage and drop the master on a page - I adds that property to the page itself - again - no reference to the main shape from its sub-shapes.
I know there is no "Parent" property in ShapeSheet formulas (only on VBA), but I'm really trying to find a way to refer it using fields or formulas, without the need to write and run VBA code.
Many appreciations for any help!
Paul is correct, but I will add that it is normally expected that a Master contains only one shape, but that can be a group shape that contains other shapes. Therefore, a formula in a sub-shape can refer to any shape in that group, including the top level group shape, using the Sheet.n syntax. When an instance of the master shape is dropped onto a page, then Visio will automatically update the n ID to the actual shape ID in the page. The shape ID has to be unique within the shapes collection that it is part of, so the top-level group shape needs to be assigned a new unique ID, but the sub-shapes do not because they already have an ID that is unique within the shapes collection that they are part of.
You need to find the parent shape's Sheet reference number (select it and then ribbon Developer -> Shape Name -> Shape). This will be something like Sheet.6.
Use this reference in your formula e.g.
Sheet.6!User.MyUserField

SAP UI5 CDS Annotation, set search filter label

I'm new to SAP and UI5. I have created a table in SE11 and created a CDS view in eclipse ABAP perspective. And I've create a template project in my SAP Web Ide.
I want to change the display label of a selection field. It currenty show the name I've given by for the table column data type. Ex:. For factoryId column I've given the data type named FactoryCode. It shows the FactoryCode label in the selection field. I want to change it to "Factory".
I've used UI.lineItem.label annotation, but it only changed the grid column name only. How to change the filter label?
Try this annotation #EndUserText.label: 'Factory'.

Oracle Apex 5.1: Interactive Grid Target Specific Cell

I'm working on interactive grid in Oracle Apex 5.1. My problem is: How can I target a specific cell of their grid (not the column), using JQuery, in order to change some properties like readonly or other?
I found some (maybe weired) kind of workaround:
In PageDesigner add every Column a unique class.
Use javascript to get the record(the row) you want to change. form the record get the unique RecordID.
Then combine both in a jquery selector to get the cell
$("[data-id='AAE6TDAAFAAPTP1AAd'] .GRUND_INFRA").addClass("is-readonly")
with "AAE6TDAAFAAPTP1AAd" as the RecordID and "GRUND_INFRA" as the ClassId of the Column

Sapui5 table column with various control template

I implemented a table which bound to a json model.
I want to manipulate it such as one of the column be with various control types depend on the row value.
For example with some condition some rows of same column has text view control and other has dropdown list control.
I attached a sample image:
Thanks in advance!
You could also just create your custom control that renders the control you want based on a property value.
I created a simple example for you: http://jsbin.com/cafumivuco/13/edit?js,output
This has the advantage that only one control is rendered per row and not both while one is invisible.

Cannot see records in form bounded to table in Access

I have a form and it's record source is a table. I created the form separately and added the control sources to the different fields in the form and also changed it's record source. I imported values from an excel sheet into the table and when I open the form, I do not see the tabe values being displayed in the form. Any idea what I should do to see the table records in the form?
In form design mode, check the form's DataEntry property. It sounds like yours is set to Yes, which hides existing records and only allows new entries. Change it to No and you will see the existing records.
Another possibility is that a filter is active and no records match that filter.
Use a form wizard to generate a working form based on your table. Then once you can see the data being displayed in the form, customise as needed.
