Default Transfer Cell Formatting for linked cells

How do you get the cell formatting (color) to transfer to a linked cell?

Example: I have added color (red) to a particular cell (A1) in Sheet1. I
have linked cell (B2) in Sheet 2 to the red colored cell (A1) in Sheet1 (i.e.
=+Sheet1!A1). The cell value (A1) on Sheet1 transfers to the cell (B2) in
Sheet2, however the color (red) does not transfer to cell (B2) in Sheet2. I
want the cell value and the color (red) to transfer from cell (A1) Sheet1 to
the cell (B2) in Sheet2. Is there a way to get the cell formatting/color to
transfer along with the cell values from one linked cell to another? Thanks
for any help. Scott
