Here is my code. The addition to $acct is not adding the LastName as expected. Ideas?? 

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;

my $acct;
my $nam;
my %data = ();

my $infile = 'Facs_Data.txt';
open my $fh,'<',$infile 
     or die "Could not open '$infile' : $!";
while (<$fh>){
  next unless /\S/; # skip blank lines
  if (/Acct:(\d+)/){
    $acct = $1;
    if (/Name:([^\s]+)/){
        $acct = $1."_".$acct;
  }
 } 
  push @{$data{$acct}},$_ if ($acct);
}
close $fh;

for my $acct (keys %data){
  my $outfile = $acct.'_2017.txt';
  print "Creating $outfile\n";
  open my $fh,'>',$outfile 
    or die "Could not open '$outfile' : $!";
  for (@{$data{$acct}}){
    print $fh $_;
  }
  close $fh;
}
