3DS Max Flip problem

[Irishfreak]

Whenever I select a box to flip the box turns black and I can't see through it to edit. I'm thinking this is a setting somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.

If anyone could help that would be great, this happens to me in 3DS Max 9 and also in the trial for 3DS Max 2008.

Do you have light sources elsewhere in your scene that dont reach the box?

Its called backface Cull. It happens on 3ds max 9 and up.
The problem you have is that under "Object Properties" you have the option "Backface Cull" checked.
You must uncheck it.

Thank you DEEhunter, is there any way to set it so that whenever I create and object I won't have to do that again?

And for me is fixed when I did check it, it was unchecked before.
