    When I draw a line it is being sent to the "back" of the drawing. If there
    is another line near it I get the older line when I try to pick the new
    line. This is a recent occurance and very annoying.

    If you set the AutoCAD system variable “sortents” to 127 you will always be able to pick the last line drawn if you have two or more lines on top of each other. Terry

    Any other ideas?

    Not a fix, but a workaround.  I just made a toolbar button that sends selected entities to the back.  So when i pick an entity, and it's the wrong one, i just click the button and it goes to the back.  When i pick again, i get the correct entity (usually).
