type a dollar sign $ in front of the variable you don't want to change.
eg. instead of =G6/D6*A3, you should enter =G6/D6*A$3. the thing you don't want to change is the row number. the column is always the same by default. the formula just moves down.

In excel if value is in one column automaticlly put formula in another column?
There is no way to have a value in one cell put a formula in another cell. However, you can put a formula in a cell that will change, based on the value of another cell. If you put the formula =A1 in cell B1, B1 will display the value of whatever you place in cell A1.

Does the sizing handle allow you to copy a formula from 1 cell to another cell?
If the formula is something like AVERAGE, SUM, etc., then it will copy it to another cell. However, when using the sizing handle after just entering the formula alone, Excel will automatically fill in the answer. The formula is copied along with it, though. However, if the formula is in reference to the content of another cell, this will not happen. The formula changes if the formula uses the content of another cell. To keep it exactly the same to copy it down, you have to make the cell number in the formula an absolute value so it will not change.
