Hello Frank
Your description of this problem reminds me of a tricky but very easy solvable 
feature. I think you are loading a midi file type 0 (all midi channels put on 
one track). Before treating this kind of files you have to do a channel split 
(go to tools extra tools and there you find channel split)
The file changes to midi type 1 and shows you a track list with all information 
that you could not see in the type 0 version.
(do not forget to remove your upper track from the list because that is still 
the type 0 format running simultaniously with all other tracks).
Good luck and hope this helps!
kind regards.
