Reading tags doesn't work as I expect

[ChrisMW]

For more details on the context, see my post here http://sparxsystems.com/forums/smf/index.php/topic,37363.0.html.

Concretely my question is: why, if I add a tag manually to a database table (one imported from ODBC), can I not read the tagvalue in the DDL scripts? Although my venturing into the DDL scripts is new for me, I can read the tags that are added standard without any problem.

Alternatively I can also work with expanding the standard set of TAGS, if I can set it's value to a dafault and override it when I want to. But I can't find info on if that's possible and if so, how to do it.
