Hi,
Is there any way to STO a tagged object into a variable...
or I'm doing something wrong...?

Almost every HP 48 function removes the tags from arguments. This
includes STO into a global variable, as you noticed.
However, STO into a local variable, or into a backup object, preserves
the tags. That's one way you can solve your dilemma.
[Wicked digression: Try this. 0:FRED DUP STO 25 MENU. Now try to
purge 0:FRED. There are several simple ways; don't give up!]
To store a tagged object into a global variable, enclose it inside a
program. For example, << :0:CLEM >> can be stored in UH. Then you
just press UH, and 0:CLEM will go onto the stack. (Don't use RCL).
A programmable way to change a tagged object into a program is:
# 63FE7h SYSEVAL
This is called "Ob>Seco" in System RPL. It encloses any object in
System RPL program delimiters which are invisible but work just fine.
You'll notice in this example that "0: CLEM" turns into ":0: CLEM",
making the leading colon visible.
