Why does conditional formatting remain static?

I'm about to go nuts! I followed the directions for locating duplicate
numbers by conditional formatting. I put the formula in like it says, but
when I go to copy it to the rest of my column, it stays the same all the way
down.

COUNTIF(A2:A1209,A2)>1
Shouldn't it change to COUNTIF(A3:A1210,A3)>1 on the next row?
If not, what am I doing wrong??
 
It certainly should. Are you sure you didn't actually enter =
COUNTIF($A$2:$A$1209,$A$2)>1?

Well, at first I thought I might have done that, but I rechecked it. No $ in
my formula.
