Maybe you should do ...

print DAT "$_\n";

... instead of ...

print ("$_\n");  

You might also might want to learn about yaml or sqlite. Dealing flatfile databases is just a pain, especially when there are better tools.

A simple ++ is not enough. You have hit the nail on the head. His code currently prints to STDOUT instead of printing to the file.
