I have 8 different workbooks that are linked to one master workbook. In each of the 8 workbooks people need to select certain names and change the text format to bold. however when the master workbook is open and updated the BOLD format is not there. Each of the 8 workbooks are changed monthly with old names changed from bold to regular text and new names put in bold. How can I carry this text formatting from the 8 workbooks to the master workbook?

Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

You will probably need to write a VBA macro that does this. Formatting is not pushed down from the workbook that the user opened to the workbook that holds the source data.
