ACSim not seeing any runways...

Hello,

 

After using ACSim for quite some time at the Denver TRACON for training students, we've also began to use it in our Colorado Springs (COS) environement. There is one problem, however. When using the Colorado Springs sector file, ACSim does not recognize any runways upon entering them into the HDG window. Is this a sector file problem? I've noticed a significant difference between the Denver sector file and Colorado Springs file, seeing that Denver has runways listed in the code. Springs does not, but there are still runway localizers visible in VRC on the sector file. I've attached a download link if you'd like to look at the sector file. How would I go about fixing this so that my Springs students can have aircraft intercept the runways?

I'm not seeing any [RUNWAY] section in that sector file. I'm guessing that the runway centerlines you are seeing in VRC are coming from the GEO/SIDS/STARS sections.
