Model Property Window Annoyance

I'm wondering if someone can give me some insights here into a problem I'm having. In my titleblock I'm pulling in the model property called 'part number'. I am holding off on numbering the parts until later in the design. I have some old data in this field which I don't want to show up in my idw's. I go into the part model, open the properties, delete the characters in the 'part number' field, click apply, click close, go back into the idw, and it's still there. I go back into the model and the data i had erased in the part number field has reappeared as well. Any ideas why this is happening. (INV6 SP1)

TIA

Not sure if its the same thing but I had a problem where if I changed the part number in iproperties it wouldn't change in the title block or yhe bill of materials in the assembly idw. Eventually I found the part number by using Design Assistant and edited it from there and it worked.

Try substituting the characters in your part number
field with a "." instead of deleting all.

I had noticed that too. I don't know why it won't let you
leave it blank, so when I don't want anything to show, I hit the spacebar once
or twice in that field.
