How to Invert Data Microsoft Excel

Quick summary

To invert data in Microsoft Excel, you add a helper column with sequential numbers, then use the Sort feature to reorder rows from Largest to Smallest, effectively reversing the table without any formulas.

Steps

1. Insert a new column next to your table and name it (e.g., "Invert").
2. Fill the Invert column with sequential numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3, …).
3. Select the entire table, including the helper column.
4. Go to the Data tab and click Sort.
5. Check My data has headers, then sort by Invert and set the order to Largest to Smallest, then click OK.
6. Once the table is reversed, delete the Invert column to clean up your spreadsheet.
