Default Reverse column order with a macro

For my job, I frequently need to reverse the order of columns in Excel.
I'll get a feed of financial data that goes 2006 2005 2004 2003 (etc),
and I need to make it go 2003 2004 2005 2006. The good news is that I
know how to do this by sorting. The bad news is that I spend 5% of my
work week doing it. I know it's just a few keystrokes, but it's a
hassle, and they add up over time. I should also note that the data
format is sometimes unusual, so I almost always have to create a helper
row. However, the data always comes to me in exactly the reverse of the
order that I want it. In other words, I do not need to "sort," as much
as I need to "reverse."

I'd like to be able to simply highlight the rows and use a shortcut.
Does there exist a routine to do this for me? If not, does there exist
a similar routine that could easily be modified?


Thank you.
