Default Rows into Columns

Hi
I have a most basic problem, but as a new user I have tried all things only
to realize I am stumped!
I have one column of data that is 800 rows long - a total of 100 sets of
records
Each set of data is 8 rows in length and I want to put the first row in the
first column, the second row in the second col. etc.
When it gets to row 9 this would go into col. 1 etc.
Any direction appreciated!
Regards

Assume your source data in A1 down
In B1: =INDEX($A:$A,COLUMNS($A:A)+ROWS($1:1)*8-8)
Copy B1 across by 8 cols to I1, fill down as far as required to exhaust the
source data
