is there an easy way for me to invert a list i've made

[ravenguy2000]

In Word, or whatever. I've made a list with things listed

1.
2.
3.
4.
etc

But I want it to start at 200. and count down to 1.

Is there any easy function that will just let me reverse it? I bet this is something really obvious and I'm going to delete this thread soon.

[wHATcOLOR]

if you can copy it into Excel, you can just sort it there (descending), provided it copies over properly, and then copy it back... there very well may be a way to do it within word, but i don't know about it cause i rarely use that application

[mercurial]

highlight list/"Table" menu/sort/descending

easy - no need to use excel

[ravenguy2000]

I must have a different version or something, I'm not seeing the "sort" option. Here, let's try this.

[dean_r_koontz]

did you always enjoy gay music or is it something you've accostumed yourself to due to social preassure from other homos?

[ravenguy2000]

Awsome, mercurial, thanks dude.

[dean_r_koontz]

i don't get it, where is the neural connection between being gay and liking eurythmics? could the music centrum in the brain be damaged by the homo gene somehow?

[mercurial]

no worries, it's easy when you know how

[Mablak]

In unrelated news, there is no way to invert lists and what was seen here was purely an illusion.
