Format painter not working and neither does ctrl-c ctrl-v combination

Any idea why my format painter isn't working?  I'm just trying to copy the shading from one cell of a Word 2010 file to another cell in the same file.

 

Thanks for the help!!

I could be wrong, but I think the Format Painter is only supposed to work with text formatting.
