With the information you provided, I'm afraid no one can guess what's wrong.
Some shot in the dark: did you try to remove all auxiliary files (e.g.,
via the "File" menu)?

If this doesn't help, it would be helpful if you could provide the
following information:
 * what .bst file do you use (is it a customized one, maybe?)
 * does this problem occur independently of which bibliography file you
use? (sometimes, there is wrong data in the .bib file already)
 * a minimal example file; basically, an empty document with just one
\cite command (and, of course, your .bst file) should suffice, if this
is a fundamental problem.

PS: Which versions of Tw and MiKTeX do you use? On which operating system?
