Question : having trouble using CONCATENATE in excel 2010

I have a list of name in colum A. I need to use =CONCATENATE("'",B1,"',") so the names are converted from: example: tree to 'tree',

Now when I paste =CONCATENATE("'",B1,"',") into the first cell in column B it works fine. But usually I would just copy the cell in column B and paste it in the rest of the cells in column B to convert all the name in column A.

does this make sense. It used to work but now it just copies the test from column B cell 1 and dups it is all of the other cells in column B.
