Mike,
Try using an 'instead of' trigger. It's made to purpose.

This is something I'm not sure can be done. Can somebody help
me out?
I have a single table with a DEVICE_TYPE field, and four views -
one for each valid device type. DEVICE_TYPE is a NOT NULL field.
The views are defined like
create view mytype_vw as
select col1, col2, col3
from table
where device_type = 'MYTYPE';
DEVICE_TYPE is not displayed, it is inferred from the view.
If I want to insert a row through the view, how can I populate
the DEVICE_TYPE field?
TIA,
Mike
