If you want to use semicolon as a delimiter try replacing your cards statement with cards4 statement.

 

Then at the end, instead of one semicolon before the run put ;;;;

Alternatywą dla CARDS4 jest DATALINES4, schemat jest następujący:

data test;
  infile DATALINES4 dlm=';';
  input a b c;
DATALINES4;
1;2;3
4;5;6
;;;;
run;
