Excel 2007's Format Painter

One of the features I really like in Excel, and one that I use frequently is the format painter. My affection for this feature stems from how easy it is to use, and how quickly it allows you to add formatting options to a spreadsheet.

What format painter allows you to do is, with the single click of the icon, copy all the formatting options from one cell and paste them into another cell or cells in a spreadsheet. The cells don't even need to be adjacent to each other when you do this.
