I'm using proc import to read in XLSX files. I get lots of these notes in the log. Can I suppress them without turning all notes off?

I believe these notes began showing in recent releases of SAS 9 that can integrate with SAS Viya, which does support VARCHAR.  But I can see that if you're just using SAS 9 as you always have, these notes are not needed and can be a distraction. I've found some internal notes that confirm there is not a way (currently) to suppress the note.

 

It has been entered/tracked as a feature request.
