Endnote experts -

I find I need to import the references from a paper I wrote and 
published before I found the joys of Endnote Plus 2.  As per the manual,
I created a "more complete refer file" (pg. 381 of manual), a few
examples from which are shown below.

And that brings us to the problem.  When I try to import the references
that are stored in refer format, they all import into a single
reference !  That is, when I choose File:import:refer/BibIX and select
my file (which has 78 references in it), it gets as far as:
"records processed:    1"
then comes back with 1 reference in the previously empty library.  When
I examine that one reference, it contains ALL THE REFERENCES !  The
Authors list contains all the authors for all 78 references, The volume
number contains all the volumes listed, etc. etc. etc. !  I need all 78 
references to be imported as indvidual records please !  The problem
happens with both the stand-alone program and the Word Plug-in.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks for your help-
