Hi,

I am trying to transform a data matrix into a vector and have not be able to 
accomplish want I am looking for.  The setup is as follows. I start with a 3 x 
3 matrix:

5 1 3
3 3 2
1 2 4

I would like to transorm it into a 27 x 1 vector of the follwing form

5
5
5
1
1
1
3
3
3
.
.
.
1
1
1
2
2
2
4
4
4

In essense I want to create a vector in which each element of the original 
matrix is repeated three times, starting with cell [1,1] and ending with cell 
[3,3].
This is small example of the larger problem I am trying to solve.  The actual 
data matrix is 352 x 15, and I would like to end up with a 26,400 x 1 vector.  
So each element of the data matrix is repeated 5 times.

Any suggestions or hints would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

I am using;
