Default How to save entire Cell in a variable and put it back later?

Hello -

I wrote a little deleteCell() function that deletes a cell and shifts
the cells below up. I had to do that because most of the sheet is
locked and I don't want the user to fool with it. So I wanted to give
the option of a undelete as well. I store the .Value and
..Interior.ColorIndex in a string and integer respectively.

I was wondering if I could store the entire cell in an object or
something like that? I want to keep all the formatting including
character font etc. ...

I tried ...

' Global
dim gCell as object

Set gCell = lSheet.Cell(1,1)

This works ... just not when I try to assign it back later ...

lSheet.Cell(1,1) = gCell

I cannot just copy it to the clipboard because the user might put other
stuff there in-between the calls.

How can I make this work to easily store and restore the format of the
cell. Would the CellFormat type work instead of the Object type?

Thanks,
Joe
