I haven't been following the whole thread but here's my two cents:

If the update is being done through the view and the problem column is not in the view than the VFP ODBC driver has to decide what value to put into the column. It seems to have it's mind made up that it wants to insert a NULL. But the column is not defined with to accept NULLs. An easy solution would be to define a DEFAULT on the problem column.
