Frank,
How are your RUC236 file named?
It appears that you are storing all analysis into one day's file-
The datatype.tbl configuration by default used hourly files
(eg the rucs names for the SCAT_ANL are YYYYMMDDHH_rucs.gem).
Could you verify for me the file name as
well as the datatype.tbl template you are using?
