Removing HTML "checkbox" from Excel
I received a spreadsheet that had data copied from a website. It has
"checkboxes" that I cannot get rid of. I have tried right clicking and then deleting, deleting columns, coping the sheeting into an new workbook, and they will not go away. Is there a way to make them go away? Thank you. |

Sub DeleteSheetDrawingObjects() ActiveSheet.DrawingObjects.Delete ActiveWorkbook.Save End Sub Sub shapescut1() 'Tom Ogilvy ActiveSheet.Shapes.SelectAll Selection.Delete End Sub -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "daydd" wrote in message ...

Removing HTML "checkbox" from Excel
Thank you for the suggestion. I just have one more question for you. Where in
Excel do I insert this information? I am not able to right click on the box. Unfortunately, we have Office 2007 and it is not as user friendly as XP was.

They are macros, Alt+F11 will open the VB editor
