Default How do I ignore the "Number stored as text" error message permane.

I have numbers stored as text. I don't consider this to be an error, but
Microsoft Excel does, and puts a little green triangle in the upper left
corner of the cell. I can click to ignore the error, thereby hiding or
removing the green triangle, but after I save the document (type xml) and
retrieve it, the error returns. How do I permanently disable the green
triangle from appearing.
