Excel 2002 -Formatting Changes not holding in Linked document

Hello,
I've got a problem with formatting changes not updating
in linked document...

Simply put, if you have a document that has a linked cell
to another document, the formatting ie...COLORS doesn't
change when you had changed the source document and than take alook at the
document with the link to the other document in it???

Yes, for instance text will be updated... but again, not
formatting like making it BOLD or changing the colors of
the text???

Any ideas... I did see a KB article 1009182 regarding a
problem linking WORD with Excel... but not Excel with
Excel and the formatting not holding... possibly it is the same
case with Excel to Excel... not sure...

thanks
