    Copy color cells from other sheet similar to Lookup

    I have two sheets, one is "Summary" sheet and the other is "Sheet1".

    Both sheets has the same template.

    The "Summary" has color bordered cells and the "Sheet1" has no color.

    Whenever new color had been added to "Summary" sheet, I would like color from "Summary" sheet to be copied to "Sheet1" in same locations like if red been added to D12 cell in "Summary" sheet, D12 in "Sheet1" will automatically filled in red from "Summary" sheet.
    Similar to Lookup.

    Hope this has enough explanation and cannot find this similar problem in search. Thank you

    I know that when you make a CHANGE to a cell on the SUMMARY sheet, it would be simple to copy the formatting of that cell over to sheet1, with something like this:

    But if the only change you make to a cell is formatting, Excel doesn't deem that important enough to trigger the _Change macro. Ugh.

    Maybe something like THIS in the Sheet1 Module:

    This effectively just copies all the formatting from the SUMMARY tab to Sheet1 each time you activate Sheet1.

    Works perfect. Thank you very much JBeaucaire. This is the fastest reply and fix ever.

    The reason why I wanted the Sheet1 to be copied from "Summary" sheet so I can put some codes in Sheet1, not "Summary" sheet. Thank you again
