Excel function to reverse the order of rows in a spreadsheet

[Peter-OL]

Does anyone know a function to reverse the order of rows in a spreadsheet?
E.g. if I have n active rows I want to swap rows 1 and n, 2 and n-1, 3 and
n-2 etc.

Set up a helper column and number your rows (1, 2, n) then sort your table
using this helper column in descending order.

or if your data is in B1:B10, you could use
=INDEX(B$1:B$10,ROWS(B1:B$10))
and copy it down

Hmm, thanks, JMB. I didn't think of a helper column.
I was assuming that since there's such a plethora of clever and elaborate
functions in Excel there must be a simple one to do this. However the helper
column will do the job.

You're welcome
