    You can use a cell reference in the Indirect() function, which resolves to the value in the referenced cell. Given Sheet1:

    ColA
------
This
is
a
test

    And these values and formulas in Sheet2:

    ColA    ColB
------  ------
A1      =INDIRECT("Sheet1!"&A1)
A2      =INDIRECT("Sheet1!"&A2)
A3      =INDIRECT("Sheet1!"&A3)
A4      =INDIRECT("Sheet1!"&A4)

    The values in Sheet2 look like this:

    ColA    ColB
------  ------
A1      This
A2      is
A3      a
A4      test

    It is easy to then fill-down (drag fomulas down) that auto-increment the cell references in column A, and the indirect formulas in column B.
