I create an 8" cmu wall and try to tag it with the Material Tag and all I get is a ? Am I missing something?

It works as expected in 2009.

In 2010 There is Keynoting by Material (similar to 09) and another button that says Material under Tags.

Never mind found the reasons

I've just had the same problem.

If you edit the material tag and then edit the label you need to add a parameter to the label.

As supplied the tag label contains 'Description' but I found that I needed to add 'Name' to the list of Label parameters to display the name of the material.

The Description parameter relates to the Material 'Identity' tab when viewed in the Material editor/properties and does not generally seem to be populated with any information, so will only show a '?' when a material is tagged.
