Kurts theory is correct, I looked at the 1yr holddata of course no fixcat updates. I unzipped the holddata delivered with my first order of ptf's that order did contain the 2yr holddata. Thanks for your help, I did not know that missing fix data was only delivered with 2yr holddata and full holddata.

Only the 2 year HOLDDATA file contains Fix Category HOLDs, therefore, the first report you ran didn't use the latest Fix Category HOLDs. You then "pulled down and applied" the missing PTFs and reran the report, being surprised to find new missing PTFs. How did you obtain the PTFs? Most likely the 2 year HOLDDATA file was delivered with those PTFs, which contains Fix Category HOLDs. When you reran the report, you were finally using the latest and greatest HOLDs, hence the additional entries in the report.
