In Excel 2003 if you enter custom header or customer footer there are 9-10
formatting buttons that you can use in the header dialog box. Examples of the
format buttons include: the file name button, date button, font button etc...
In all Microsoft Office programs if you point to a button on the tool bars
with the mouse it will provide you with a screen tip, letting you know what
the buttons function is. That is every where except in the header/ footer
dialog box. i would like to know why and where can I find out the description
of each button?

MS doesn't often publicly disclose their design decisions. However these
buttons pre-date the concept of tooltips and MS hasn't so far gotten around
to updating them. That may change in Excel 2007.
