Well, color me a Dumb*&%,but I found the problem.

C:\Users\xxxxx\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config        In the options.lua

      Line 49     ["optionsView"] = "optview_onlymap", 

So I launched DCS, Opened the options / gameplay menu and under F10 view options switched it to   All.

Problem Solved.

I Wish I had thought to look there. Instead, this is the thought prosses that brought me to that conclusion. 

I use OvGME, so I disabled all of my Mods.

Then I ran the full (slowest) Repair option in the start menu, Eagle Dynamics folder.

I still had the problem.

Next, I went into my saved games folder, Cut  my DCS World folder out and moved it to my desk top. I then ran DCS world , which created a new folder in Saved games folder. 

The problem was gone. Now I knew the problem was in my old saved games folder. But where?

I opened a window with my old saved games folder on the left side of my screen and another window on the right with my new saved games folder.

Next ,one at a time, I copied an item from my old DCS World saved game folder , pasted it into the new DCS World saved games folder an let it overwrite the new Item. 
 
I then started DCS World and checked to see if the problem had returned. 

When It did, I knew my problem was in the last Item I had moved into the new DCS World folder.  

In my case, it was the Options.lua ,so I deleted it, ran DCS so a new Options.lua would be generated and check to make sure that fixed the problem again. it did.

I am lazy by nature and did not want to have to redo all of my option bindings.

So now I compared the two .lua files line by line until I found a difference and fixed it. Problem solved. 

Maybe this post will help someone else track down a problem  they are having.
