you misuse the syntax, check the docs. with 'dat(...)' r tries to apply
dat, but dat is a data frame, and is thus not applicable. what you want
is dat[...].
you can argue that the error message is misleading; unless you defined
one, r cannot find a function named 'dat', but it does find your data
frame, and it should complain about its non-applicability.
