Default text formating formulas

To the OP... Note that this method is not actually bringing over the formats
from the source data. It is conditionally formatting the results of the
formula. That being said there is no way to bring over the formats. Formulas
return values and not formats. There is no functinoallity in XL that allows
you to dynamically take the formatting of one cell and place that onto
another.
