Hmm, this looks like a warning from VS doing XML schema validation, not from
WiX. So you're right, there's no warning number and thus it can't be
suppressed. I don't know how to turn this off though :( FWIW I don't think you
will get these warnings if you build outside of VS. Is there a problem that
these warnings are causing you or do you just want to be clean?

Agreed that would be preferred versus the numbering game I'm currently playing.
Looking at the 13 warnings I'm getting for the same issue none of them have a
wix specific warning number....unless I'm overlooking it, e.g.
Warning 9 The 'Win64' attribute is invalid - The value '$(var.Win64)' is
invalid according to its datatype
'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi:YesNoType' - The '$' character,
hexadecimal value 0x24, cannot be included in a name.

You actually want to use the WiX warning number in the SuppressWarnings
field/element, not the number that is used in the VS Errors window. Most WiX
warnings and errors have a unique number.
Eg:
warning LGHT1079: The cabinet 'WixProject1.cab' does not contain any files. If
this installation contains no files, this warning can likely be safely ignored.
Otherwise, please add files to the cabinet or remove it.
The error number is 1079 for the example above. This information is printed in
the Output window when building in VS. You should look at the output window to
determine the warning number for the warnings that you want to suppress and
then add them to the <SuppressSpecificWarnings>1079</SuppressSpecificWarnings>
field.

Fyi - I ended up with three additional warnings showing up which were getting
numbered as 1, 2 and 3. I tried adding 11;12;13 to my
SuppressSpecificWarnings element, e.g. 1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10;11;12;13, but that
didn't help. I added 1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10;1;2;3; and that did so it seems the
warning numbers cycle once you suppress existing ones and suppressing the new
ones involves starting at 1 again..

Thanks. Adding
<SuppressSpecificWarnings>1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10</SuppressSpecificWarnings> to
the project did the trick.

The format is supposed to be:
<warning number>(;<warning number>)*
In your case, just put 9 in the text box.

What is the format of of the wix project "suppress specific warnings" text box,
e.g. I'd like to enter something there that suppresses the following warning
that my sources are generating which as I understand it relates to a known bug
that will cause this warning not to occur in some future build.
Warning 9 The 'Win64' attribute is invalid - The value '$(var.Win64)' is
invalid according to its datatype
'http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi:YesNoType' - The '$' character,
hexadecimal value 0x24, cannot be included in a name.
