Can formats follow formulas?
 

Hello,

I have a worksheet with many formulas connected to a second sheet.
Some of the formulas on the first sheet are simply 'reading' the
contents of a cell on the second sheet. However, if the contents of
the cell on the second sheet has some specially formatting (i.e.
bolded, italicized, etc.), the formatting doesn't follow to the first
sheet. Is there a way to make this happen? Thanks.

No, formulas can never carry formats

Well darn, that's not what I was hoping to hear. Thanks though. Can
you think of a 'work around'? I have two identically looking sheets,
and one is for entering the data, and the other manipulates the data
and is the 'presentation' sheet. Thanks.
