Can you post a short sample of the subtitle format? And have you tried latest subtititle workshop beta?

e.g. I have the following subtitles, after opened by subtitle workshop, Line 5,6,7 disappeared, no problem with subtitle creator. I think subtitle workshop treats them as illegal line number and then deleted. 1 00:00:54,499 --> 00:00:58,492 [fireworks exploding] 2 00:01:04,609 --> 00:01:06,702 [crowd clamoring] 3 00:01:12,717 --> 00:01:15,083 [indistinct chatter] 4 00:01:17,455 --> 00:01:19,355 [man] He's in the other room. 5 00:01:27,299 --> 00:01:29,961 1 6 00:01:31,002 --> 00:01:33,835 2 7 00:01:34,172 --> 00:01:37,198 3 8 00:01:37,809 --> 00:01:42,075 - [man] It's a coded message. - [Gates] It's a Playfair cipher.

newnews : e.g. I have the following subtitles, after opened by subtitle workshop, Line 5,6,7 disappeared, no problem with subtitle creator. I think subtitle workshop treats them as illegal line number and then deleted. Yes, same here. Work around: put another character at the beginning of the lines, eg: 6 00:01:31,002 --> 00:01:33,835 #2 After you're done in Subtitle Workshop, open the SRT in a text editor and delete all the # before using it for authoring.
