Description
I found two problems when using cck_taxonomy fields in Views:
1 - exposed filter based on cck_taxonomy field does not work; whatever value you select on the exposed filter the Views display everything
2 - cck_taxonomy field passed as argument to a view must be passed by its tid and not the actual term, otherwise the argument does not filter anything; and even I pass the tid, argument substitution does not work (shows empty argument)
#1
I just ran into this myself. The solution to problem (1) is to add
'value-type' => 'array',
around line 230 of cck_taxonomy.module.
The problem is that with an OR operator but not having value-type set to be an array, the query generated is:
...your_field OR '7'
(which makes no sense at all, it's like not having that line in the query at all, ergo showing all results)
Rather than:
...your_field IN ('7')
.cw.
#2
Just a SVN patch for this issue.

I've downloaded cck_tax_ssu (super select ultra: http://drupal.org/project/cck_taxonomy_ssu), which combines CCK_taxonomy and Taxonomy_superselect. Do I need to install this patch? If so, can you tell a newbie how and where to install?
Thank you.

OMG... this has been plaguing me for MONTHS! I can't believe it. You are so GREAT. I can't believe it. I have been searching all over Drupal for this solution- case in point, always come to the bug report.
I am SOOOOOOOOOO flipping GREATFUL!
