Default How do I convert multiple columns to a single column?

If your first number in column A is in A2, & you want the new column to have
the corresponding number in E2, for example, then use the formula:
=OFFSET(A$2,MOD(ROW()-2,COUNT(A:A)),INT((ROW()-2)/COUNT(A:A)))
and copy down your 6000 rows or as many as you need.

I have several spreadsheets with data listed in 4 columns. Each column has
about 1500 rows of data. I need to reorder my data so that column B's
data
is placed underneath the last data entry in column A (with column C under
B,
etc.)

e.g.

existing order

A B C D
1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3
4 4 4 4

new order

A
1
2
3
4
1
2
3
4
1
2
3
4
...

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
