Strange Citation Formatting

Hello,
I have a citation entered as:
Løwendahl et al., 2001, #402;Aharoni, 1993, #47089
But when it's formatted it seems to lose the second reference, only including the date as if the authors were the same, but they're not!
(Løwendahl et al., 2001; 1993)
Could anyone help?
Thanks, Taman

Hm, I didn't receive them. If the zipped file is very large, it may have bounced. If it's not (10 MB or less), please send them again (zipped) to
support@sonnysoftware.com.

OK, I have the files now, thanks.
The problem is that you are using a custom citation format. Aharoni is the editor of an edited book, and in the custom citation format you specify
a, d
(Author, Date) for edited book.
The custom citation for an edited book should be
e, d
(Editor, Date)
You can refer to our APA Citations format for an example.
