Hi Stephan,

One additional piece of information that I inadvertently neglected to 
mention is that the hg18 refFlat.txt file is automatically updated 
nightly as part of our GenBank data updates and so it should be 
up-to-date with the NCBI Build 36.3 annotations.

Please see this FAQ on our web site for more information about the 
GenBank data updates:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQreleases#release6

Thank you,
