Default how do i parse every nth data point from a large data set in exce

I work with very large data sets imported into Excel. I want to reduce the
data from over 60,000 data points to 6000 by selecting every 10th data point.
So for example I have 10 colums of 60,000 (rows) data that I want to get 1
data point for every 10 lines.
