>The NULL value error may be coming from SQL Server. It may be saying that you have not supplied a value for that column and it cannot be null. Make sure that the ID column is updateable (If it is a key field of the SQL Server primary key, by default the view marks these fields as not updateable. Make sure that all the fields of your view are updateable)

Some fields in SQLSERVER Cannot be empty like Visual Foxpro (DATETIME,...). So the
Empty is converted to NULL. So if those fields are contained in the primary key, there
will be an error. SO you can put a default value (in the remote view and SQL SERVER)
for all fields and be sure, when you insert the new record. There is no null values
in the primary key.
