Just a couple of things to check.

1.  In the few cases I've seen with the behavior you describe, more than
once the problem did not go away until all the indexes in the offending file
were rebuilt.

2.  If your report calls an auto table other than the default that it used
based on way report is called from your development menu/script that you are
using to tokenize, then try retokenizing with an explicit -y <rptautoname>
as part of you rcabe command.  Maybe something in a default auto table is
conflicting with your report output processing.
