PROC Star

This statement would definitely generate such a note:

 

 n=strip(nt);

 

Try switching to:

 

n = strip(put(nt, 8.));

options nonotes;

 

And you are better of using catx to concatenate than || operator

 

a quick look at your code makes me think 

n=strip(nt);

this causes the note to be written to the log
