Gershon,

I had a similar problem with A2K...and it has to do with the install...there 
are some options that have to be selected to have ALL file formats listed 
for import.  Sorry, I don't remember the option name...I just remember 
having to run the install disk to change the properties.

Thanks,

Mark
