Chuck your brilliant,I apologize for not picking up on this sooner, I have 
stepped away from this project for at least a few months, so now I am coming 
back to it and ... learning as I go again...Chuck is absolutely right it has to 
do with my method of inserting the tags... below is an excerpt for how I deal 
with the tag, if it's a net new tag or if it's an existing tag... if it is a 
brand new tag it uses the addObjectToBothSidesOfRelationshipWithKey and as 
Chuck predicts that works fine, however if it's an existing tag no such luck... 
until the app is stopped and started... I came up with this hair brain scheme 
to avoid having multiple entrees of the same tag in the tag table... using 
addObjectToBothSidesOfRelationshipWithKey adds the tag whether or not it's 
already in the table.. any better ideas about how to over come this? Thanks 
again. (It's a many to many relationship that I let webobjects magic build the 
intermediary table for... tagmaps)        // if we find a positive result for 
our search        if(result.count() > 0) {            // grab that existing tag 
and add it to BlogEntrys tagss relationship for newEntry            Tags 
existingTag = new Tags();            existingTag = 
(Tags)result.objectAtIndex(0);            
newEntry.addObjectToPropertyWithKey(existingTag, "tagss");                } 
else {                    //if there is no positive result, add new Tag 
normally            EOEnterpriseObject newTag = 
EOUtilities.createAndInsertInstance(ec, "Tags");            
newTag.takeValueForKey(tempString, "desc");            
newEntry.addObjectToBothSidesOfRelationshipWithKey(newTag, "tagss");
