    Simply by the order... I want the first number to be the last, the second to be the second last, the third to be the third from last etc.

    What I need is to take a column and "Turn it upside down"

    Assuming your data is in row A1 to A5 put the formula

    in
    cells B1 to B5.

    Then you sort your date in range A1 to B5 by selecting "Sort by" colum B and "Decending"

    Maybe this?

    =INDEX($A$1:$A$100, COUNT(A1:A100))
    Never use Merged Cells in Excel

    OP is from Denmark so formula should be:

    =INDEX($A$1:$A$100; COUNT(A1:A100))
