I made a custom view for a group of three tables. How would I configure the view so that it can be edited by an application using it like a table? I am using SQL Server Studio Express.

You’ll need to create INSTEAD OF INSERT and INSTEAD OF UPDATE triggers on the view and then write insert and update statements within the trigger to manipulate the data in the 3 underlying tables. See this MSDN article that has a simple example. You’ll find the desired edited values in the special INSERTED table within the context of the trigger definition.
