Default Creating a template that is manually updated from another sheet.

Well, without knowing your data structure at all, and without knowing how you
are obtaining which specific row, you could do something like this:
Assuming A1 contains the row that you need.

B1: =INDIRECT("Sheet1!B"&A1)

If this doesn't get you on the right track, post back with more info, such
as data structure, formulas, and expected results.

Usually I am pretty good at using formulas, but this one has me
baffled, I am pretty sure it is possible.

I have two sheets; on the first page I have all my calculations and
variables, one row per item, but multiple columns. On the second
sheet I have how the items should be formatted. I am trying to figure
out a way script it so I can choose a row, and have it fill in the
cells on sheet 2, or choose another row from sheet 1 and have it
recalculate the cells on the sheet 2. In a nutshell sheet 2 is a
template that gets it information form sheet one. The trick is that I
need to be able to choose what rows from the first sheet.
