Data Sort #ERR in copied data - Exel 2003

I have rows numbered 1 - 500+ in column A. The rows are numbered by adding 1
to the above cell i.e. A2 =A.1+1. I copy the entire sheet to sheet 2 for
sorting but the row numbers return #ERR! when sorted by reference to any
other column. How can I keep the formula for numbered rows in sheet 1 but
make them absolute on sheet 2 so they give the number assigned to them in
sheet 1? I've looked for an answer without success so resort to this posting.
Help much appreciated. Thanks
 
Paste values instead of formulas - then they won't change.
