Shelia,

After a bit of looking ...

The SeisMgr database in SAC is responsible for writing GSE files.
If the SeisMgr database is off the writing of GSE files fails.

Version:  If SeisMgr database on by default
v100.0:   On
v101.1:   Off  (writegse fails)
v101.2:   On

The SeisMgr database should is now be on by default in v101.2 as well  
as in future versions.

To turn on the database set the environment variable in sh or csh (in  
v101.1 and later)
sh% export SAC_USE_DATABASE=1
csh% setenv SAC_USE_DATABASE 1

Sorry for the headaches.

Cheers
Brian
