Depending on what version of excel you're using, you can actually tear off that
dialog.

In xl2002+ (not sure about earlier)...

Click on that little dropdown arrow to see the palette.

Grab that dialog by the top border and drag it closer to your cells to change.

(Just slightly faster than going all the way up to the top of the screen!)

at the top of the workbook????

Thanks!
