X3d-Import Video-Limited to one video track at a time?

I have about 5 video clips that I'm trying to load into new project. The intent is to edit videos and make a compliation
into one video clip. It seems that I can only import one video clip at a time.
 
There are options under "Insert" for new Audio, MIDI, soft synth tracks, but no video. When I try to import a second video clip, the only option I have is "Replace Current Video Clip".
 
Is importing multiple video clips not possible in Sonar?
Should I be looking into using Win Movie Maker to produce one compiled movie?
At this time I'm don't intend to add a music track, but will be keeping the audio (conversations) from the video clips.

    Sonar is not a video editor.  It just happens to have support for limited video for the purpose of scoring, sound design, etc.  There are much better options for video editing, including several free ones like window movie maker (simple, limited but supports multiple clips ) and lightworks which is professioinal but complicated for a beginner.

    Thanks! That's what I needed to know.
    I'll use Win Movie Maker to compile my clip, import that into Sonar.
    Decided to do a few voice overs in the conversation in the video, which should be pretty easy.

    +1 Sonar has never ever been able to import more than one video clip at a time.
