If you drag that formula down through a column, it should adjust the row
references automatically. Check your formula: is it i2/h2 as you indicated
in your post? Or $i$2/$h$2 ? The latter uses absolute references which will
NOT adjust automatically (that's the difference between relative and absolute
references).

If the cells are contiguous in a column, try this:

Select the cell with the base formula
Edit>Copy
Select all the cells below that one that need the formula
Press [Enter]


Does that help?
