I’d like to be able to bind a datagridview to a sql view and use the built in tableadapter update method to write data back to the view. Is this possible?
Thank you.

Also:
“Microsoft SQL Server does not permit updating fields in multiple database tables used within a SQL view. According to Microsoft, “INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements also must meet certain qualifications before they can reference a view that is updatable… UPDATE and INSERT statements can reference a view only if the view is updatable and the UPDATE or INSERT statement is written so that it modifies data in only one of the base tables referenced in the FROM clause of the view. A DELETE statement can reference an updatable view only if the view references exactly one table in its FROM clause.”
