what happened to the insert = at the left of the formula bar?

[vtj]

I am new to Excel 2007 and miss the ability to click the = that used to be in
the box at the left of the formula bar. It would put the beginning = in so
that a formula could be entered directly by clicking on the first cell,
entering an operator and clicking the second cell. That was very efficient.
I suspect that it still exists, I just can't find it. Thanks for any help.

That with XL2003; next to the Formula Bar is fx which when press inserts an
= and opens the Insert Function dialog. The same in XL 2007.
