Material Editor is driving me insane...

What is up with the Material editor?
I may be using it incorrectly.I am using the 1.01 Demo Engine.
Heres what happens. I select an object, press F4, then press the small
round icon that "Swap material on the object with existing".
I then select my material from the list and press Select at bottom right.
Everything is good at that point but how do I save the fact that I just changed the mats for that
object. It doesnt seem to set the dirty flag for level saving. Even so, If I make more changes, save the level and then exit the engine.
I reload engine, load my level and other objects are RED with No Material set.. Seems to be random and is driving me insane.
Am I doing something wrong (very probable).
How does it actually save which materials are linked to objects. Thats what seems to be wacky?
Any tips are appreciated.
