Did you use the curtain wall door family when you created the doors? If so you may need to use the tab key to cycle between the Curtain Wall and the curtain panel that is the door.

BTW they should still schedule with the doors if you used the correct family

i'm using the curtain wall dbl doors and curtain wall;storefront. i got the door to tag. i did select the door but when i picked tag all not tagged i didn't specify to tag door tags.. i assumed it would figure out which one i meant. i tried the same process to get the storefront to tag but it will not add a window tag to the storefront. it's pretty common practice, around this region anyway, to put the storefront in the window schedule... is this possible.

Curtain wall panels use the curtain wall panel tag which can be construed to be a window tag. They only other way is to use the curtain wall window panel family and tag that, or create a multi-catagory schedule and filter out what you do not want

thanks. i've got the curtain wall panel tag and i think it's working... can you tag the whole panel system or just each panel?

An entire curtain wall can be tagged with a wall tag.
