Did you mean...

(=Sheet2!C2)(=Sheet2!D2) etc...?

If so then one way is...

=Sheet2!B1
(in Sheet1!A1) then...

=OFFSET(Sheet2!$B$1,0,ROWS($1:1),1,1)
(in Sheet1!A2) filled down as far as needed.

Or, if you don't want to see the zeros that result when the Sheet2!
cell is blank then use...

=IF(OFFSET(Sheet2!$B$1,0,ROWS($1:1),1,1)<>"",OFFSET(Sheet2!$B
$1,0,ROWS($1:1),1,1),"")

Is there a way to make the cell come up blank when you insert the formula
instead of the N/A ....

Thank you in advance

Try...

=IF(ISNA(OFFSET(Sheet2!$B$1,0,ROWS($1:2),1,1)),"",IF(OFFSET(Sheet2!$B
$1,0,ROWS($1:2),1,1)="","",OFFSET(Sheet2!$B$1,0,ROWS($1:2),1,1)))
