Problem with 24-bit WAV files

I have just upgraded to MicroEditor 5.5 and it is running on Windows XP. I do field recording with a FOSTEX FR-2. The FR-2 writes either 16-bit or 24-bit WAV files to a CompactFlash device. When I record in 16-bit mode, MicroEditor handles everything fine. Not so when I record in 24-bit mode. Of course I'm being careful to open a project with the proper settings (i.e. 24-bit) before attempting to load the segment. MicroEditor loads the WAV file but does not recognize that it is 24-bit. It reports that the file is 16-bit even though it is definely 24-bit. I can load the same WAVE file in several other programs and they all see the file as 24-bit (mono).

Could someone help me solve this problem? I really need to run the FR-2 in 24-bit mode and edit the files in MicroEditor.
