How do you show the toolbar in Excel 2008 on Mac OS X Lion if it's hidden?

Question

In Snow Leopard and earlier, there was a "tic-tac" control in the top right of the window, but after upgrading to Lion, it's no longer there. Any ideas?

Deleting ~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.Excel.plist restored the toolbar for me.

The option to show/hide the toolbar is still in the View menu, or should be. I don't know about Excel 2008 specifically.
