Inverting an array

[surfsoc]

Hi,

I'd like to invert an array such that column A goes from A1:A12 and can be transferred to B1:B12 but displays the information A12:A1. This would result in the following: B1(A12), B2(A11)....B12(A1).

Is there a way around this using some formulas or can it only be achieved manually?

Thanks,

Ed

Assuming the array goes from A2:A10, put this in B2 and fill down
=OFFSET($A$10,-(ROW()-2),0)

Try...

B1, jsut enter and copy down:

=INDEX($A$1:$A$12,ROWS($A$1:$A$12)-ROWS($B$1:B1)+1)

Thanks everyone, for some reason, with some tinkering, i found that this formula worked
=OFFSET($A$14,-ROW()+1,0)

thanks again

Did you try them all? Also, what happens if you add some rows in front of the data?
