Does anyone have any experience in formatting Excel data in Word? I'm linking the import so it updates in Word when the Excel data changes. The issue is formatting it. Can this be done in Word or do I need to format in Excel and update?

So far this is the only way it works for me, e.g. change the font size/type/colour in Excel and update. I was hoping that this formatting could be done in Word.

I'm using Word/Excel 2010 on my Mac.
 
The only way I have ever used it is formatting in excel like you are doing. Don't know if you are manually updating, but it can be set to auto updated the linked data.

I'm working on something just the opposite - excel in word "not" linked, "not" updated through a separate worksheet - ugggh. My solution thus far is Pages.
