Creating one stereo track from 2 separate mono tracks

Sonar X2, Producer...  recorded a choir using 2 Rode condensers.  Input to 2 separate tracks.  Now I need to combine them into one stereo track, but maintain the stereo separation inherent in the original 2-mic recording.  It seems when I "bounce tracks", the 2 mono tracks are being summed?  Anyway, the resultant individual stereo tracks are identical but should be different.
 
If that descrption makes any sense, I'd greatly appreciate your comments or suggestions.  I believe I once heard of the option of Exporting the 2 tracks to a stereo .wav, then importing it back in.  I guess that might work, but seems like Sonar might have a built-in solution.
 
Thank you

    Oops, i goofed in orig post...   the "resultant" track (with left/right), NOT resultant stereo track(s) as I originally stated.

    You can bounce them to a stereo track - just make sure you have the mono tracks panned hard left and right.  Otherwise they will do what apparently happened when you tried it.

    Thanks much, it was the "panning" did the trick...
