Do a LIST on the line, and post here what data the LIST returns.

Maybe you need to expand the Geometry section of the properties window. Click the double down arrow.

Got me beat. The LIST command is working, but having done a search on the properties window, I couldn't find anything. Sorry, maybe someone a lot smarter than me can figure it out for you.

I had a similar issue years ago, the properties list was empty. I sorted it out doing a REPAIR of my installation.
If you decide to do so, you may wish to save your customizations first.
Maybe someone else will show a shorter way.

This can happen if you use a registry cleaner, or if you have McAfee VirusScan and you have it configured to clean your registry. As fuccaro suggested, you will need to run a repair of your installation or reinstall the program in order to fix this problem.
