Having a problem with Monster Manual DnD 5e

I'm having an issue where I drag a creature from the compendium, first noticed the issue with a bear brown, onto the tabletop and the token appears but I dont get the character sheet.  I can see the stat block for it and all of its actions, traits, and so on by dont have access to the actual sheet to make the rolls and can't share it with my players.  Some creatures it does work with and the entry gets added to my journal tab where I can share it with my players and roll for it.  Any help or pointers would be very appreciated.
Just found my own answer but I'll leave this up for anyone else that has the problem.  In my case I have some of the premade modules, Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan, in my game that had those tokens in their npc journals so it wont populate another when you drag it onto the tabletop.  You have to find it the modules journal folder to get to the character sheet.

Related note: if you Alt-Double Click on a token on a map, it will open the character sheet for that creature if it's in your journal. This helps if you can't find it in the module's list, or just want to open something quickly.
