Another version of SQL Permission Question

How do I restrict update access to a table based on criteria within the
table. I'm trying to use a view and limit access to the base table
You can "update" a view in certain restricted conditions (like there
can't be any joins in the view for instance - see BOL for the complete
list of restrictions). Alternately, you can write an INSTEAD OF trigger
on the view so that the trigger code handles the updating of the
underlying tables when a user runs an UPDATE statement against the
view. You can use this method when the basic updatable view
requirements cannot be met.
So if your view limits access to only certain parts of the base table,
you can allow people to only update those unrestricted parts of your
base table by just letting them update the view (or if it's a complex
view, write an INSTEAD OF UPDATE trigger for the view).
