Default Format Cells Dialog Box Missing

I have tried multiple paths to get to it but I am unable to open the format
cells dialog box. If I right-click on a set of cells and select "Format
Cells..." I am returned to the spreadsheet with no dialog box opened. The
same thing happens if I try to get to the dialog box through the ribbon on
the ribbon bar. I can mouse over the link on the ribbon bar and see the
miniture view of the dialog box, but if I click on it, nothing happens. Any
ideas?

Default Same problem.

I've had the same problem with one of my spread sheets. The file is not protected and I can open the format cells dialog box on either side of the effected cells. I'm completely stumped as to why I cannot open the dialog box and multiple google searches have not helped.
