Reversing the order in an Excel column

Reversing the order in an Excel column

Reversing the order in an Excel column

(OP)
I am trying to reverse the order of a data set in a column (1,2,3,4...) to (4,3,2,1..), without having to copy and paste each one individually.  Is there anyway that I can highlight the entire data set and reverse the order with a command in Excel?

Thanks, I just figured it out.

RE: Reversing the order in an Excel column

Well....  How did you do it?

RE: Reversing the order in an Excel column

(OP)
I did just what you said.  For some reason, the first time I tried the command, it only reversed one column at a time.  But after reading your post and highlighting all the columns needed for reversing, it worked.  Thanks for the help.
