SYMPTOMS
In Visual Studio .NET, when you right-click a property in the Properties window, and then click Reset to reset the property value, the property is cleared from the Properties window. However, the old property value may still be applied.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
 Open a Web Form in Visual Studio .NET From the Toolbox, drag a simple control such as a Label ASP.NET server control to the page. With the control selected, press F4 to open the Properties window. Expand the Font properties, and then set the Size property to large. Right-click the Font property, and then click Reset. Note that although the value is cleared from the Properties window, the label text remains large in the design window.  Switch to HTML View. Note that the ASP.NET server control that you added still has the following attribute: Font-Size=&quot;Large&quot; </li></ol>

Workaround
Click to select the value that you want to clear, and then press DELETE to reset the property value.
