Default Copy paste formula error

Each month I copy a percentage column from one worksheet to the following
month and then check the cell references to be sure they are correct. One of
the cell references is an absolute value. However, starting last month when
I copy and paste this formula it only copies to the fiirst cell and then the
rest of the cells copy the "value" of that first cell. For example: the first
cell may paste as .77 or 77% but when I copy that formula to the remaining
column it pastes the .77 in every cell. I have checked the other cell
references and it references the correct cells but gives the wrong answer. I
have checked the paste special to be sure it's not just pasting value and it
is not. Any ideas why each cell will not figure the correct value for the
formula?
