This code snippet will change dimstyle settings but has no effect on leaders. Any ideas what I need to modify? Thanks.
;This portion will reset all Dimension Styles to the correct "Standard"
(setq dm_tbl (vla-get-DimStyles (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))))
(vlax-for n dm_tbl (setq dm_lst (cons (vla-get-name n) dm_lst)))
(foreach n dm_lst
(command "_-dimstyle" "r" n
"_dimdli" 0.1825
"_dimasz" 0.0685
"_dimtxt" 0.0685
"_dimexe" 0.0342
"_dimexo" 0.0342
"_dimgap" 0.0342
"_-dimstyle" "s" n "Y"
)
)

Are you using MLeaders? If so - the properties are stored in Mleaderstyle objects accessed by the MLEADERSTYLE command. Mleaders no longer use Dimstyles.

No mleader just the old standard leader.

No mleader just the old standard leader.
Then to some extent they should follow the dimension style. I believe however the leader line would update with the dimstyle changes, but the text would not. I just tested this in 2019 and that is still the case. If you're not referring to the text, perhaps there is also the possibility of dimension override(s) controlling the leader?

This is what you need. Google gives many examples http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?5248-Is-there-a-way-to-Automatically-set-the-QLEADER-defaults&p=31280&viewfull=1#post31280

qlset.lsp - example initialization of QLEADER settings
Frank Whaley, Autodesk
Two functions are included in this file:
(acet-ql-get)
Returns an association list containing the current QLEADER settings from the
Named Object Dictionary.
(acet-ql-get <alist>)
Sets the specified values for QLEADER settings from the given association
list.
Returns an association list containing the new values.
These functions can be used to examine the current QLEADER settings, or to
initialize the setting before using the QLEADER command.
For example, to use splined leaders and framed text:
(acet-ql-set '((65 . 1)(72 . 1)))
Both functions use the following group codes to identify QLEADER settings:
3: user arrowhead block name (default="")
40: default text width (default=0.0)
60: annotation type (default=0)
0=MText
1=copy object
2=Tolerance
3=block
4=none
61: annotation reuse (default=0)
0=none
1=reuse next
62: left attachment point (default=1)
63: right attachment point (default=3)
0=Top of top line
1=Middle of top line
2=Middle of multiline text
3=Middle of bottom line
4=Bottom of bottom line
64: underline bottom line (default=0)
65: use splined leader line (default=0)
66: no limit on points (default=0)
67: maximum number of points (default=3)
68: prompt for MText width (word wrap) (default=1)
69: always left justify (default=0)
70: allowed angle, first segment (default=0)
71: allowed angle, second segment (default=0)
0=Any angle
1=Horizontal
2=90deg
3=45deg
4=30deg
5=15deg
72: frame text (default=0)
170: active tab (default=0)
0=Annotation
1=Leader Line & Arrow
2=Attachment
340: object ID for annotation reuse
