Format Cells Icon on Customized Toolbar
Hi. DAE experience this problem: I customize my toolbar to shortcut functions I use consistently, and one of those icons I include is the Format Cells icon. But shortly after I insert that icon onto the toolbar, Excel changes the icon from the square Formal Cells icon to one with a paint bucket/brush, and grays it out the icon so it is not usable. So I have to go back into the list of commands, remove the paint bucket/brush one and re-insert the square Format Cells icon which works for a little while then Excel again converts and grays it out.
If anyone has a remedy, please let me know.

- JKPieterseSilver ContributorThat hotkey works for any object in Excel. I like it so much that I even try to use it in Word. But alas, in Word that key combination does not work.
