Answer / sandhya
You can modify data by using a view in only one of its base
tables even though a view may be derived from multiple
underlying tables. For example, a view vwNew that is
derived from two tables, table and table2, can be used to
modify either table or table2 in a single statement. A
single data modification statement that affected both the
underlying tables is not permitted
