Auto update cell data with =hyperlink() from one sheet to another

Question

I want to automatically update sheet2 in a Google Spreadsheet document with data from sheet1. The problem I'm facing is the data also has a =hyperlink() associated with it. the standard, ='sheet1'!A1 only copies over the 'text' in the cell, and not the hyperlink.

This is in cell A1 on sheet1

=hyperlink("http://class.guhsd.net/index.php?EMP=DT50";"link")

This what I entered in sheet2

='sheet1'!A1

Is it possible to import the data with the hyperlink? If yes, can someone please share the formula with me?

Answer 1

Try the following formula:

In sheet2:

=INDIRECT("sheet1!A1")
