When I go to edit a node, categories and community tags reset on the edit page when using CCK

I just installed CCK tonight. All together I've been playing around with it for about five hours. I have read every page in the CCK Handbook, but this seems like a bug that will not be resolved on it's own.

This bug conflicts with the categories of my vocabulary and terms, plus also the Community Tags module. I have tested everything with uninstalling CCR and everything works fine. When I have CCR installed, then the bug occurred.

OK, enough with that introduction, let me explain about the bug.

I went to Content types types to add a new CCR field after installing the CCR module. I create a group. I create a label / name / field. I am using the "Select List" widget to create my label / name / field. When I go to create a new node, everything works fine with the label / name / field / and group displaying in the creation of the node. In fact, everything seems to be going smooth. I click submit and my node (story type node) is created. However, the bug happens when I click to edit the node. I click on edit and it takes me to the edit page. I have a bunch of categories and terms set up to select from. If I previously selected any categories when I created the node, then when I click to edit it seems to show that no categories are selected. Likewise, when I click to edit a node, if I previously had any community tags (Community Tags) module, then after I click to edit a node it will be like all of my community tags disappeared. It will show nothing. It's blank. It's like when I have CCR installed, it seems to "blank" out several other fields, e.g: categories and community tags.

Therefore, when a user selects to edit their node, when CCR is installed, the other fields will be blanked out, and even if you try to select the category again or re-add the community tags, the system doesn't seem to accept it. Because after clicking submit to go back to the node after editing, it doesn't show any of the categories I selected nor does it show the community tags. :(

I really would like to use CCR, because I need to create a custom field where I let the user select a year (2007, 2006, 2005, etc.. as a "Select List") for each node.

Please help. I view this bug as being fairly critical. I searched the other bug reports in this project, and I'm surprised that no one else is having the same issue with me. Yes, I tried disabling the Community Tags module, but the bug still occurs when ever I have CCR installed. I also tried removing practically all of my modules I use one-by-one to see if I could still reproduce the bug. But unfortunately the bug seems to have to do only with the CCR module.

Please help if you can!

Attached is a screen shot of the categories and community tags fields being "blanked" out or reset after clicking on the edit page for a node. Hopefully that gives you some idea what I'm talking about. I think I've tried everything I can on my own. I'm not sure what else to try next. I'm not a programmer per say, but I've been working with Drupal itself for around two years on and off.
