Ok, I copied the cells from sheet1 on the new sheet2 tried to paste special>Paste Link.
The problem with this is, the blank cells that have no value in sheet1 are shown as 0 in sheet2. How do I get blanks for blanks?
Thank You

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

if referrencing...then use this example...pretty simple..
=if(A1="","",A1)

if you are using vba then paste special as values....

Yeah,, but that wont automatically link any new data added in sheet1. Ideally this is what I want.
There are data cells in Sheet1. Sheet2 contains a table of the cells in Sheet1 (I need this table in order to publish it as SharePoint lists).
If a new row is added in Sheet1 a new row is created in the table on sheet2 with the same data, if a row from sheet1 is removed row from table is removed

Enter any dummy data in sheet1 from A1 to C10, then in sheet2, A1 enter a formula =IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1) then copy this formula accross from A1 to C10 and check it out...

It should work:)
