converting "matrix" of values into single column

alright, first i have to say that i have been happyly taking advantage of this website all summer. it has really help me to write some pretty awesome macros.

problem i have having now is converting a "matrix" of values into a single column on another sheet. here is an example of the data.

Data Sheet - worksheet
Col S Col T Col U Col V
Row 1 85828 86217 87170 0
Row 2 84648 0 0 0
Row 3 86671 86750 87203 0
Row 4 83205 86640 0 0
Row 5 86483 0 0 0
Row 6 86611 0 0 0
Row 7 86375 86425 0 0

i have no problem in deleting the "0" i don't want. just having some trouble with the marco "for statement". here is what i got.

For ik = 1 To 7
rp = 18
Cells(ik + 3, 1).Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='Data Sheet'!R[ik]C[rp]"
ik = ik + 1
rp = rp + 1
Cells(ik + 3, 1) = "='Data Sheet'!R[ik]C[rp]"
ik = ik + 1
rp = rp + 1
Cells(ik + 3, 1) = "='Data Sheet'!R[ik]C[rp]"
ik = ik + 1
rp = rp + 1
Cells(ik + 3, 1) = "='Data Sheet'!R[ik]C[rp]"
ik = ik + 1
rp = rp + 1
Next ik

one counter is for the rows and one is cor the columns. the biggest problem is with the reference of the "Data Sheet" page. i assume that it is just a problem with format. sorry if this is a little long winded. just hoping someone can shead some light for me. if there is anyway i can help describe the problem anymore just tell me. thanks.

This will put your matrix into column A.

thanks mike. that was helpful. i was able to mod your code to fit my needs. the only thing that gave me a fuss was there needs to be "Set" at the beginning of the 5th line of code. with that fixed it was working great. thanks again.
