Default Multiplying one cell by a column

I'm trying to multiply column B3:12 by cell W5. B3:12 contains a set number
and I'm trying to multiply that number by the formula result in W5. I've
tried every special paste option and combo. Also W5 is connected to a
spinner. I need B3:12 to adjust as W5 does. So far I've had to manually
link all the cells to W5. Uggh.
Any help appreciated.

Doing this causes the next cell to multiply by W6, and the next by W7...so
on.....

Apologies for not adding the $ signs to W5.

I see Tyro has made the correction.
