In the AutoCAD MEP 2012 not all Dialog boxes display automatically.
Point style dialog box =ddptype in the command line will display for better coordination
Array Dialog box
are 2 examples of 2 high demand dialog boxes that don't display
is this intentional from Autodesk to remove features that aide in its use?
Is there a fix for this? Please advise.

Installing Service Pack 1 for AutoCAD MEP 2012 will give you the array dialog window again via the ARRAYCLASSIC command. Here's the link for the update:

There's also some hotfixes that are good to have:

Let me know if the updates help with the DDPTYPE dialog window too.
Excellent! I'm glad to hear that did it for you.
Does this also work for 2013? To obtain the old style dialog boxes - we are having issue with imputing the angle in the rectangular array.
Yes, ARRAYCLASSIC is in AutoCAD 2013. No update is needed to get it into the program like there was with 2012.
