bot icons instead of data

I'm having a problem with data displayed after using the database
wizard in Frontpage. Everything works fine after the wizard. I see
the data in table format and it looks right. If I try to copy and
paste the table data to another office app I get everything copied ok,
but instead of the actual data I get these funny webbot icons. The
headers and even the formatting copies fine. It's just the data.
Is there way to get rid of the webbot icons or do I have to rewrite
all my pages using real ASP?
Help!

If you ripped the screen off of your televeision and stuck it in a picture
frame, do you think you could watch South Park on it?

A Database Results page is just a device for displaying data. It doesn't
contain any data at all. It's like a television. Copying and Pasting the
HTML it generates doesn't copy the data; it only copies the HTML that
contains a "picture" of the data. And it IS real ASP. What exactly are you
trying to achieve? Perhaps we can help with an alternative solution.

Kathleen,

This is exactly what I did.
But instead of data I get these stupid webbot icons in each cell where
there should be data.
I'm totally flustered. If I use straight ASP and not Frontpage, then
everything works fine. It only seems to happen where frontpage sticks
in the
"<!--webbot bot=" tags.
