We have an Oracle application that generates reports in htm format. When we
open this report in MS Excel 2003 it creates "buttons" (that is the best
description I can use) that I cannot remove. The buttons are on the
spreadsheet, have the same appearance as the row and column designators, and
"float" over the cells. I cannot move them, delete them, or even identify how
they are used. When I click on them a dashed line box appears (like a
select) but still do not respond to a right-click. They are a result of the
lines:

<TH><INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="request2" VALUE="Arn"></TH>
<TH><INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="request2" VALUE="Nmfs Contact"></TH>
<TH><INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="request2" VALUE="Consultation Title"></TH>

in the htm file. We need these to be removed from the spreadsheet. I can
edit the htm file, remove these lines, and open the file in Excel as a fix,
however this is not a workable solution for our staff. I would prefer
providing an explanation on how to remove these "buttons" in Excel. As a
final piece of information, these do not appear when opening the file in
Excel 97.

Thanks....
