_IMEXSERROR_ is an internal macro variable that is generally created when PROC IMPORT is used while the SYMBOLGEN system option is active. You can simply choose to ignore it or use an OPTIONS statement to reset to NOSYMBOLGEN.

It is used to save the SERROR status for the current SAS session. We have to turn SERROR off temporarily, and then return it to its original state. The _IMEXSERROR_ macro variable stores this data during the interim.
