Answer 1

see Using Views in Microsoft SQL Server

When modifying data through a view (that is, using INSERT or UPDATE statements) certain limitations exist depending upon the type of view. Views that access multiple tables can only modify one of the tables in the view. Views that use functions, specify DISTINCT, or utilize the GROUP BY clause may not be updated. Additionally, inserting data is prohibited for the following types of views:

* views having columns with derived (i.e., computed) data in the SELECT-list  
* views that do not contain all columns defined as NOT NULL from the tables from which they were defined

It is also possible to insert or update data through a view such that the data is no longer accessible via that view, unless the WITH CHECK OPTION has been specified.
