in thread NDBM_File won't store data

Here is the MakeDate sub: 

sub MakeDate {
    my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = localti
+me(time);
    $year = ($year + 1900) ; $mon++ ;
    my $date = sprintf("%04D%02d%02d", $year, $mon, $mday);
    return $date;
}

That should be a string right??

    Yup... so my idea wasn't right.

    I've had some problems using DBM_* in Perl before - some of them have awkward little bugs like a tendency to die if you untie the object in the right place. But what yours is, I don't know.
