Auto populate columns in one sheet from another sheet

I would like to populate columns in sheet2 from sheet1. If I have column A in Sheet1 I want A in Sheet2 to have the same information.

I tried using =sheet1!A1 but it only returns the value from A1 in sheet1. I tried using =sheet1!A but it only returns #NAME?.

If Column A from Sheet1 has a dynamic range (it can be empty or have 500 or 1000 rows (I'm populating sheet1 from my database)). How do I use some of those columns in another sheet showing all 500 or 1000 rows?
