Default How do I add icons to the ribbon boxes in excel 2007

I want to add certain icons to ribbon boxes so they I can click it and not
have to hunt for it. I know I can add it to the toolbar at the top. but I
find the toolbar isnt as easy as finding it on the ribbon boxes.

Is there any way to customize the ribbon to fill what you want in them or
are they pre-set by mirosoft and cant be changed?

Maybe you'd like Patrick Schmid's ribbon customizer:

That is a given, MS have removed the easy customisation of the ribbon. I
think it was their objective, short-sighted IMO, but MS (thinks they) know
best.

Open the post, and double-click my name in the From field. There is a
(seeming) address there which needs to be modified as directed in my
signature.
