Properties Window - Description not visible

[joe_pool_is]

Using Visual Studio 2005 Professional:

 

In Design View, the Properties window has a Description pane that resides at the bottom.

 

If the Description pane is not visible, simply right-click anywhere in the Properties window and select the Description item.

 

Mine is selected (i.e. it has a check next to it), and I like to keep it set at about 3 or 4 lines tall by dragging the splitter bar to for the Description pane.

 

In this particular copy of VS2005 Pro, the height of the Description pane resets itself to very small or zero every time I open the application, and I have to struggle to get it to display again.

 

Is there a setting somewhere in VS2005 Pro that I need to set? Could someone tell me how to prevent the IDE from doing this?

I have version 2003 and I get the same thing.
