How do I keep source formatting when linking files?

I have a "combined" spreadsheet that has about 8 other spreadsheets linked to it. The individual spreadsheets all have conditional formatting in them. Is there a way the "combined" spreadsheet can pick up the formatting from the source spreadsheets? Otherwise I'm going to have to go through and set up conditional formatting for the combined sheet .... which I'd rather not have to do!!

Thanks in Advance!

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
Hi, I don't think it's possible. :(
