The error handler is reporting the problem in a piece of code that works perfectly in every other circumstance and which contains no SELECT - SQL statements even approaching the limit.

Check the definition of the view, Update type - if it's Key and Updated fields, then it generates a SQL statement which includes all the changed fields in the Where clause, like " Where KeyField='oldkeyvalue' and Field2={old value of field2}and Field3={old value of field3} and ....", so the more fields you chenge, the longer itgets. Change it to Key Field Only.
