Default Combining a string of text

Very easy.

Once you have entered the formula to combine the strings, copy the cell and
paste/special/value back onto the cell. Then hilight the areas in the
formula bar and apply the formats.

I want to combine a string of text from several cells. I can do this however
the format of the text needs to be different. Example. I have "New Loan
Application" in cell A1 and it is in Calisto MT size 9 font. In cell B1 I
have "to be submited in" also in Calisto MT size 9 font. Then in cell C1 i
have the number "5" in Arial, Bold, underlined and in size 10 font. Then I
have "business days" in cell D1. I want to combine all 4 cells into one cell
with all of their respective font sizes, styles and characteristics. ie bold,
underlined, or italicized. I have been playing around with: =A1&B1&C1&D1 but
can't get the right fonts and styles. Is there a way to make this happen?
