Dumb question on stereo/mono tracks

I'm sure I knew how to fix this before but between sleep deprivation and a few annoying aspects of this project - I can not think straight, so pardon me if this is obvious...

When I drag a stereo wav from soundminer into X1 it creates 2 mono tracks, how can I:

1) stop this from happening as default
or
2) quickly merge the 2 mono tracks into a single stereo track

Thanks

2) Select both tracks, do a bounce to track. Select Stereo as your output.

Thanks Jonesy
I don't know what happened last night, but I just could not put it together.

You should be able to go into your import settings to fix that

+1    you can do the bounce to fix it but check the settings because you should be able to import a stereo file without having to do anything else.
