Don't have any absolutes.....

=CONCATENATE(TRIM(A4),B4,C4,D4) is the original formula.

The next cell down the column is: ==CONCATENATE(TRIM(A5),B5,C5,D5) and so
forth. But the new value in the cell remains the same as the first cell. I
have even changed for formula to just add to cells together and I get the
same result.

I don't know anything about locking a file or anything like that. As I said
before I have even copied the cells to another workbook and it acts the same.

Make sure that the formula doesnt have absolute references. for Example $A$1
change it to A1 if you want formula to adjust as you drag it down.

for a better answer, post your formula.

For years I have clicked the bottom right corner of a formula cell and
dragged down the cell and it copies fine.

Today I received a spreadsheet from another person and tried to work on
it.
I calculated a formula in a cell. Then I dragged it down the spreadsheet.
The result was that all cells down the page had the same answer as the
first
cell I had copied. But each cell had the correct formula in it.

The drag changed the formula, which should have changed the result in the
cell, but it kept the same value as the first cell.

Any help ?? Thanks.
