Syntax on Views; MySQL 5.0.1

[gadam]

Hi,
i looking for details on the syntax regarding to 'views'. I can't find anything in the online-manual.
I created a view using the syntax:

CREATE VIEW bla AS SELECT bla FROM bla;

Everything works fine. But when i tried to update the view with this statement:

INSERT INTO bla (bla) values ('bla');

i get the error message:

ERROR 1288 (HY000): The target table viewPatientStatus of the INSERT is not updatable

Can anybody please help me on that?

Thanks.
Gernot
