using dsd with cards

Steelers_In_DC — Sun, 23 Sep 2018 12:27:44 GMT

I am trying to input some stock data like below, I've dropped the infile statement, removed the dlm from the input statement and get the same message every time. The output shows up with the headers but empty, log is below. I haven't done this in a while, so I think it might be a simple syntax error but I'm not seeing it. Appreciate any help in loading this data

Thanks:

data nflx;
infile cards dsd dlm=',';
informat date mmddyy10. close 8.;
format date mmddyy10. close 8.;
cards;
8/22/2017,169.34
8/23/2017,169.06
8/24/2017,168.13
8/25/2017,165.95

log:

74 data nflx;

75 infile datalines dsd dlm=',';

76 informat date mmddyy10. close 8.;

77 format date mmddyy10. close 8.;

78 datalines;

NOTE: Variable date is uninitialized.

NOTE: The data set WORK.NFLX has 1 observations and 2 variables.

I caught my own issue, simple error, I forgot the input statement:

data nflx;
infile cards dsd dlm=',';
input date close;
informat date mmddyy10. close 8.;
format date mmddyy10. close 8.;
cards;
8/22/2017,169.34
8/23/2017,169.06
8/24/2017,168.13
