Default trying to store non-zero numbers from a list into sequential cells

I am a complete novice with Excel, I am using Excel 2002 with windows xp
(home). I have list of numbers, some zero some none zero, I am trying to
extract the non-zero numbers and store them in sequential cells (i.e. if a10
then store it in x1,
if a20 then store it in x2, etc) but can't figure out how to get the cell to
iterate. There doesn't appear to be a "For" function ("for x=1 to 10, ...,
next") and you can only "nest" 7 "if" functions (which seems a terribly
cumbersome way of doing it anyhow). Any suggestions (please keep them simple
- I ain't all that bright) - thanks
