There is no easy way to link the formatting of cells from one to another.
Formulas place in the cells to create a link only return the value and not
the formatting...

I'm trying to link text in Excel cells to other Excel files or to Powerpoint.
The text at the linked locations seems to lose any formatting I give to the
text at the original locations. Specific formatting I would like to transfer
via the links are bolded and colored text.

Thank you so much for your help,
