Transpose and link content and also formatting

I have used the below formula to link 2 spreadsheets, one with horizontal format and the other vertical.
I would also like to replicate the formatting. i.e. I have used colours in the source sheet and would like the same colours in the destination one. Is it possible to do this please? If so how?
Thanks in advance

RE: transpose and link content and also formatting

Hi Liz,

Thank you for the forum question.

Unfortunately I cannot see the formula you are using. We can use the Transpose function to transpose data, but the function will not transpose the formatting (the colours). We can use Paste Special Transpose. This will transpose the formatting but not the links.

What you want can only be done with VBA. I do not know your experience with VBA, but the link below can point you in the right direction.
