I'd like to change this chart

enter image description here

to the following one:

enter image description here

So, I'd like to reverse the order of rows. According to an answer on a similar question, you need to create a formula and put it in each cell manually to have this result. But is that really the only way to do this (rather simple) change? I have 3 charts I'd like to reverse and each of them has 3-5 columns and more than 400 rows. So, to put a formula in every single cell certainly is quite time-consuming (to say the least).

Btw., the numbers in every cell are supposed to be placeholders for words. So, selecting 2 cells in a column and dragging the window down won't work.

It seems I've finally figured it out. You need to number all your rows and then select the column which contains these numbers in the organize/sort sidebar. Finally, you choose increasing or decreasing to reverse the rows. This order remains even if you delete the column with the numbers.

  • Thanks. And how do you number them? Clicking and dragging the bottom corner of a cell like in Excel or Sheets doesn't work...

    You need to first type in at least the first 2 numbers in the first 2 cells of that column. Click both cells by holding down SHIFT. Then drag the border down. Here's more information about that autofill function: idownloadblog.com/2019/03/27/fill-down-numbers-autofill-mac I hope it helps.
