Are you using the tools from the CT10 download page?

There is one secret to R2B tools - the .BIN file must already exist before
running the tool.  It sounds like you have only the .RES file.

Create a new (empty) .BIN file with the same name as the .RES file.  Make sure
it's set up for the correct contest. Then run R2B10 again and it should import
correctly.

If you're still having problems, let me know.
