Default Problem with copying formula


I am entering the following formula into Cell L3....

=B4-E3

When I copy this down to the cells below with the drag handle, the
formula is copied correctly (i.e =B5-E4, =B6-E5 etc..), but the result
is the same in every cell which is clearly wrong. I'm stumped.
Thanks.

Set calculation to automatic under toolscalculation or press F9 after you
have copied down if you for some reason need calculation set to manual
