Final answer:
To copy formatting from cell range A2:G2 to cell A2 on a different worksheet in Excel, use the Format Painter tool. Format Painter is efficient and easy to use, allowing you to quickly apply the source cells' formatting to the destination cell.
Step-by-step explanation:
To copy formatting from one cell range to another, particularly from a range like A2:G2 on one worksheet to cell A2 on another worksheet in Excel, the best feature to use is the Format Painter. To do this, you would first select the range A2:G2, then click on the Format Painter (which is usually found in the Clipboard group on the Home tab), and afterwards select cell A2 on the other worksheet. The formatting from A2:G2 will then be applied to cell A2. This tool copies all of the formatting, including font, color, and other stylistic features from the source cells to the target cell without altering the content.
While Copy-Paste Special could also be used to achieve a similar result, it involves a few more steps. You would have to copy the original range, move to the other worksheet, right-click on the destination cell, and then select Paste Special > Formats. But for ease of use and efficiency, Format Painter is the preferred tool for this task.
Options 'Apply Style' and 'Cell Format Transfer' are not default features in standard versions of Excel, so they would not be the correct answer to this question.
