By default settings only you can determine if a dimension is driven dimension or driving dimension. A driven dimension will be grey in color and a driving dimension is completely black in color.

My understanding of the problem is that you want to use the surface you created as the top surface of your solid. I would have started my model a little differently but with what you have here is how I would achieve what you are looking for. Here is a link to video of me doing it. http://youtu.be/_QlfGXh7ghU These commands are not on the standard feature ribbon by default and you can add them if you use them a lot, or do like I did and just use the command finder search bar.
