Hello everyone,
I have included my output as attached. Any hint or correction is appreciated!
data music; infile '/folders/myfolders/Bands.csv' DLM=',' dsd missover; length Band_name$ 30 Gig_date$ 10; input Band_name$ Gig_date$ Eight_PM Nine_PM Ten_PM Eleven_PM; run; data music2; proc import datafile="&dirLSB.Bands2.csv" out=music2 replace; run; proc compare base=music compare=music2; title 'music vs music2'; run;
I used this instead and it worked. Thanks:)
Much more interesting than the output would be the infile to run the code against.
data music; infile '/folders/myfolders/Bands.csv' DLM=',' dsd missover; length Band_name$ 30 Gig_date$ 10; input Band_name$ Gig_date$ Eight_PM Nine_PM Ten_PM Eleven_PM; run; data music2; proc import datafile="&dirLSB.Bands2.csv" out=music2 replace; run; proc compare base=music compare=music2; title 'music vs music2'; run;

Your code wouldn't run properly so your log should have errors.
See my comments below:
%let dirLSB=/folders/myfolders/; data music; infile '&dirLSB.Bands.csv' DLM=',' dsd missover termstr=CRLF; %* needs double not single quotes. Macro variables do not resolve in single quotes so the file would not be read; length Band_name$ 30 Gig_date$ 10; input Band_name$ Gig_date$ Eight_PM Nine_PM Ten_PM Eleven_PM; run; proc print data=music; run; data music2; *This line does nothing and shouldn't be here. Delete it; proc import datafile="&dirLSB.Bands2.csv" out=music2 replace; %* this is missing DBMS=CSV; run; proc compare base=music compare=music2; title 'music vs music2'; run;

data music would not be created properly (no records) because the single quotes in the infile statement keep the macro variable from resolving.
