Default Consolidating entries from multiple worksheets

I am using Excel XP.

I have a spreadsheet with 5 worksheets, named Monday to Friday that I use to
record details of visits that I make. Within each of these worksheets there
is an area where I have the option to record comments about the visit.

I want to create a sixth worksheet that consolidates these comments into one
list so that they can be viewed at a glance. Of course I can reference each
cell on the Monday - Friday spreadsheets, but this could leave a number of
blank spaces where I have not made a comment.

I guess I could write a macro that sorts the list and puts the blanks at the
bottom, but if there is a function that will do it automatically, it would
be preferable.

Thanks for any guidance you are able to provide.

There's code here to copy comments to another sheet in the workbook:
