Storing data from .dat file into array

I want to take the data from a .dat file and store it into an array.

I have a .dat file formatted as such:

" 1000

this is the dataset for the FFT lab

0.000000,4.004024

1.000000,3.051631

2.000000,-3.694841

...etc...

999.000000,4.058688"

My current code is

fileID = fopen(filename);
fileData = textscan(fileID, '%f %f', 'HeaderLines', 2, 'CollectOutput', 1);
Data = cell2mat(fileData);

I'm trying to skip the two header lines and store the data into 'Data,' but it ends up being a 1x2 double with '0' and 'NaN.'

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Remember to specify 'Delimiter', ','

... and possibly 'EndOfLine','\r\n'.
