Sorting Rows- Reverse
I have ten rows of numbers in sequential order. I want to reverse the
sequence of numbers. I believe there is a way to do this via the toolbar: File, edit, view, insert, format, tools, data, etc. I have been searching for the command, but can not remember where it is. Any help would be appreciated. |

If you have sorted them "Ascending", after selecting the ten rows goto DataSort and select "Descending" and OK out. Mike Rogers "wannabe68" wrote: I have ten rows of numbers in sequential order.

Add another column.
Put 1, 2, 3, ..., 10 in those cells (or even =row() in the top and fill down) Then sort all your data by this column in descending order. wannabe68 wrote: I have ten rows of numbers in sequential order.

One more method.
In an adjacent column enter this formula then copy down to row 10. =INDEX($A$1:$A$10,10-(ROW(A1)-1)) Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Sun, 13 Apr 2008 14:32:02 -0700, wannabe68 wrote: I have ten rows of numbers in sequential order.
