How do I quickly reverse the order of a set of data
Is there a way to reverse the order of a set of data, easily?
I want to take a list with a couple of columns and have the first row become the last, the second row become the second to last, and etc... Does anyone know of a way to do this? |

Assuming that your data is in column A, insert 1 in B1, 2 in B2 and so on. Select both columns and use Data|Sort. Sort on column B in descending order. The data in column A is now reversed. /Fredrik |
Insert a temporary column, and number each row. Enter a 1 for the last
row, and in the row above that add 1; repeat so the first row is the highest number. Then highlight all the rows, and sort on your temporary column from lowest to highest. When you're done, delete the temporary column. |
With the help of an extra column.
In this column enter numbers 1,2,3,4 etc and sort all three columns by this column "descending" Regards Bill K "mdaiga" wrote in message ...
