Thanks, I appreciate the response.  I tried the repair installation but I still can't get the dialog box. 

The _visualstyles command doesn't work in AutoCad LT 2008.

I downloaded a LT drawing from a manufacturers website and as you went from view to view the hidden lines disappear.  I can draw in 3D/Iso but I do not know enough about how to set my drawing up.  When checking the objects in the downloaded drawings they are called a 'polygon mesh' in properties.

Thanks again for all your help!

_visualstyles

That brings up the same dialog box.  I have MEP 2008 so I'm not sure if LT has anything to do with it or not.

This command should work in LT. Try the repair installation, or the dialog may be dragged off-screen.

In any case, all settings from HLSETTINGS can be also set with the corresponding system variables.
