copying a formula, the reference adjusts, but the result does not
 
Why, when I copy a formula the reference adjusts as it should, but the result
does not change until I go into it again, making extra work. Is there some
kind of auto spreadsheet update that will do this for me at a click, or do I
need to change the way something is set up? The formula is, eg. =D60*3%.

It kind of sounds like you have calculation set to manual.

Tools|options|calculation Tab
change it to automatic
