Able to Restore DB through GUI even the DB is in offline state.

Hi,

I made the DB offline and right click on the database and found the restore option greyed out and it wont allow to perform the restore operation.

But before making the database offline if I launch the restore operation and donot hit run (Right click on the DB--Task--Restore--selected the option to restore) and minimize the Restore GUI and then put DB offline and bring up the minimized restore window and hit OK,I am able to restore the DB.

So is this a bug that when we make the DB offline and look for the Restore option on GUI,the option is greyed out and doesnot allow us to restore where as before making the database offline, launch the restore operation and donot hit run (Right click on the DB--Task--Restore--selected the option to restore) and minimize the Restore GUI and then put DB offline bring up the minimized restore window and hit OK,I am able to restore the DB?

Thanks,
