The choice component allows you to have a multiple option, that will write a comma-delimited list of values.
Ok Thnnk you - I am doing this now…please give me a few mins - so the Tags field in the people table will just be a text field correct

Exactly, and would contains row ids to prevent any kind of misspellings in the case of free text input anywhere in your app 
tho it would not happen with choice component anyway.
Thank you MAxime - my interpretation of your instructions has advanced me to being able to add an entry to the tags field in the people row, but I am still struggling how I can add multiple choices in the scope of a single submit, and not overwrite the existing tags in a subsequent submit
Let me try to get a bit more clarity…
Create the tags column. - I have created a text field in the people table called Tags_csv
Then how I interpreted your instruction was to set up a relation in the tags table
This allows me to add one tag at a time to the tag_CSV field in the TalentPool row people record.
Also, if I go back to add an additional tag, it overwrites the first tag
No, I meant that you create the relation in the people table. The relation would be looking into the tags table → row id from the people table → tags columns.
Try this!
Ok - I have moved the relationship to the people (Talent Pool) table
Is this right?
I am still only able to insert one tag and in a subsequent submit, it overwrites the current entry.
Hi @ThinhDinh…
Can you help me please with the next level of detail.
I have a table that is people and a table of tags
I am having trouble envisaging how multiple tags can be chosen as all of the choices components that I have seen so far only allow for one choice at a time
Coming in very late here, and I’ve not read all posts in the topic fully, but… a year or so ago I created a template to demonstrate one way of dynamically creating/applying and filtering by tags. You’re welcome to make a copy, if it would be of any use.

Thank you @ThinhDinh for your assistance…@MaximeBaker has been an amazing support today - basically there beside me all day helping me to wrangle with all aspects of this use case.
And now … your help in the above comment has finally “broken through”… This comment has been the final piece of the jigsaw - I finally looked closely at the options for the choice component - This journey is NOT just me learning about Glide but learning about my learning effectiveness…(or lack thereof)
And thanks to @DarrenMurphy for your consistent support
LOL

Thank you @maximeBaker so much for your help and support - It is not just the actual insights you provide that make a difference but the fact that you, and @Darren_Murphy , @ThinhDinh and others are willing to be there to assist that makes the psychological difference that obstacles will never become insurmountable…Many people fail to begin a journey, or give up at the first obstacle as they can not see how they can be successful - Knowing that you and the other expert contribtors are here and no matter how silly or obvious the question, you treat it with respect and true caring.
This a very unique and valuable community and I am very grateful for all your asistance …and so timely as well…I feel I am making real progress and winning!
ANd the other thing…so far, n matter what the use case / requirement I have, Glide always manages to find a way to do it

Thanks @Darren_Murphy I can now access nthe app - that Taghelper table has shit my brain down!!! LOL…I will revisit it after a good nights sleep!
Any explanation of what each cilumn represents would be greatly appreciated!
It’s quite a while since I built that, so I’d probably have to go back and study it a bit.
Also, there may be simpler approaches now - again, I’d have to take a close look at it.
If there are any bits of it that you’re struggling to get your head around, point them out and I’ll see if I can explain.
