combine

Hey everyone. I'm new to excel and VBA and I'm stuck at this problem.

I have multiple lists that are in separate columns in excel. What I need to do is combine these columns of data into one big column. I do not care if there are duplicate entries, however I want it to skip row 1 of each column.

ROW1| 1 2 3

ROW2| A D G

ROW3| B E H

ROW4| C F I

should combine into

A

B

C

D

E

F

G

H

I

The first row of each column needs to be skipped.
