Joel this is the description on the help for this error.

An optimistic locking conflict has been detected while trying to update a view.

Make sure your update key is valid.

If you want to commit your changes to the base table(s), call TABLEUPDATE( ) with lForce. This will overwrite the changes made to the base table since the view was last fetched.

To discard the local changes made to the view, call TABLEREVERT( )

How are you setting the sql update where clause key field only, key field and updatable fields...
