possible to link a hyperlink?

I have a worksheet with hyperlinks to the internet. I have another
worksheet that links to some of the information on the first worksheet.
(So, for example, cell A1 on Sheet2 =Sheet1!A1.)

This is fine, except for the hyperlinks. For the hyperlinks, the
*text* is recreated in Sheet2, but not the *link* to the internet
itself.

I know I can copy and paste, but several people work on this file, and
I want to know how to automate the process. In other words, I want to
know how to make it such that whenever someone creates a hyperlink in
Sheet1, it is automatically recreated in Sheet2 without their having to
think about it.

Anyone have any ideas?

Problem solved. :)

I've used a macro to extract the URLs from the hyperlinks, and put
those URLs in a new (hidden) column. I can then use the HYPERLINK
function -- which I didn't know about until just now -- on this new
column, and the hyperlinks are recreated on a different sheet.
