Hi,

I've added a Taxonomy Field to my content type to collect tags from the Managed Metadata Service.

If I use 'Edit Properties' in the SharePoint Library I can add 50+ tags to my Document.

If I edit the document in office applications and edit the properties via the Document Information Panel I get an error and the document is unable to check in -

"To save to the server, correct the invalid or missing required fields."

Environment is SharePoint 2010 SP1 and Office 2010 SP2.

History is the Content Type used to contain a Lookup to another list but this hit the 50 lookup item limit, so we decided to use a Taxonomy field so we can add up to 250 tags. 

I've checked through Technet and tried the couple of tricks users have suggested on other threads: changing the hidden fields to optional and back again, creating a new content type, creating a new doc library. 

Thanks

Gareth
