I have never tried doing that inside a view (I have joined to a stored
procedure from in a similar way via a standard query from our app).
You could certainly do it with a stored procedure (you wouldn't even
need to do the join in the query, that could be inside the for select
block.)

Does the select work in its own right? If so it may be a limitation of
views.
