    The $ locate reference to the column or row in excel sheet into the absolute reference and that reference never change when you copy a formula down or across.

    =CONCATENATE(J29,$H29,"mmm") If you want to copy across, but always refer to H29.
    =CONCATENATE(J29,H$29,"mmm") If you want to copy down, but always refer to H29.
    =CONCATENATE(J29,$H$29,"mmm")If you want to copy down and across, but always refer to H29.

    You can disable autoincrement in excel. Go to Edit tab under option there you can see the check box which Allow cell drag and drop. If you uncheck that box then it won't allow user to drag and drop. That means it stop auto increment.
