Remarks

The QuestionInstructionText property is displayed in Question view to instruct the user to answer the password recovery confirmation question.

The style settings in the InstructionTextStyle property define the appearance of the QuestionInstructionText property.

When you use the QuestionTemplate property to define the appearance of the Question view, the QuestionInstructionText property has no effect.

The default text for the property is localized based on the server's locale setting.

The value of this property, when set, can be saved automatically to a resource file by using a designer tool. For more information, see LocalizableAttribute and Globalization and Localization.
