Hello! I am trying to delete a custom cell format in Excel. I've done this a zillion times before, but now my "Delete" button is gone! The other spreadsheets I'm working in have the "Delete" button, no problem! How can I get it back? As some background, a lot of spreadsheets in our company are copied from previous ones, and they are carrying over a bad cell format that needs to be deleted. I've done this in a few already, but this spreadsheet that I was given today has the Delete button gone.

Thank you!
