Default function Making one row out of many

I have 72 rows, each one is about 10 cells long. Does someone know a function
to make one row out of this?
Thanks a lot!

That would convert to ~720 columns and therefore requires xl2007.
If your data start in cell A2...
1. In B2 enter =A2&" " &B1
2. Fill down
3. Copy and paste values over the bottom cell in column B
4. Use Text to Columns in that cell.
5. Sort the resulting row in ascending order.

Actually, what I posted will only work for a single column.
You should be able to alter it to work for ten columns.
