Do you mean that the option to use the side bar from the "view" tab is greyed out?
This would be because the new store in iTunes 12.7 does not have a side bar. Any music in your Library can be found in the "Library" Section of iTunes. This is located on the penultimate bar to the top of the itunes window (underneath your play/pause/skip ect. functions)

Does this help you find what you are looking for?

What I am trying to do is find a simple drag and drop way of building a playlist from the store. I know that there is supposed to be the 3 dots but I don't see this on my MacBook I do on my iPhone. So I thought if I could just get the sidebar to show while the main screen is in the store I could drag and drop to build a playlist. I see the interaction with the personal library and store was identified as an issue 2 years ago I'm not seeing a fix.

That seems to be the way it is. You could potentially open a playlist in a new window first if that would help.
