Default Coping text using Formulas -

I am trying to format text on a worksheet, where any text in cell A1 entered
on Sheet 1 automatically fills in a cell on Sheet 2. My formula on Sheet 2
reads:

=Sheet1!A1

The text copies fine, but I need the properties and formatting to go with
it, such as text color, bold, row height, etc. Can someone help?

The easy way to do what you're describing is to select the entire
worksheet 1, copy, select the entire worksheet 2, and paste special --
formats.

You could also write some VBA code to do the same, if you were so
inclined, but this i think should do it.

I should probably explain. Worksheet 1 is Detailed information. Worksheets
2 thru 10 are summaries of 1, where only critical cells are being copied
over. Hence why I was using the formula to automatically copy over the data
from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2.

Unfortunately, I'm not proficient enough with VBA to do anything. Any other
suggestions?
