Those marks, that look somewhat like slurs, joining those notes were not  
slurs; they were ties.  Sometimes people write slurs joining notes on the  
same pitch, usually with another mark to indicate the type of  
note-separation.

The manual section on Rhythms explains how to input ties, the section on  
Expressive Marks explains slurs, and there is a glossary explaining the  
difference.  The section on Rhythms, which comes first, even has a note  
warning that slurs and ties are different.
