merging column in libreoffice calc does not work when drag down

Question

I'm merging columns in Libre Office using the CONCATENATE function. I'm merging all text using:

CONCATENATE(A1," ",B1," ",C1," ",D1," ",E1," ",F1," ",G1)

According to this suggestion, I should be able to apply the function over the whole column by dragging the plus sign; however, when I drag the plus sign, it only copies the first line, but I want to merge the next row.

How can I merge the columns correctly?

@oczdref, I am not sure why this would not work in your situation. Here is what I did (please ignore the ; separators, in your case they should remain ,)
