When I auto-increment my variable only reaches 12 before cycling to 1. I'm using v5.8.7 on linux. Paring my code down to just what matters for this purpose the following code produces "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9": 

    my $onlyUse = 0;
    while (my @unitRow = $csr2->fetchrow) {
        my $unit = $unitRow[1];
        unless($seen{$unit})
        {
            $seen{$unit}++;
            $onlyUse++;
            print " $onlyUse ";next;
        }
    }

As might be expected, I need to reach numbers higher than 12 in order for my code to work properly. My variable is both local AND named such that I can be certain no other variable exists by that name AND I pared its use down to merely increment, print yet it does this to me... Thanks in advance for any assistance.
