Default Remove check box that came with web page copy?

When I copy a web page with a table that contains check boxes into
Excel, the check boxes gets copied into the work sheet and I can't
figure out how to remove them! The check box just sits there and won't
be deleted, even if I delete the cell that surrounds it. The same
thing sometimes happens with small icons, and I suppose it is the same
mechanism in Excel in that case.

Can anyone please enlighten me as how this works, so I can remove the
unwanted check boxes?

Per.

PS. Copying as text is not a solution, I need the data to be inserted
into columns.
