Powerful Features

You can flip or reverse data order or number order in columns or rows by copying and pasting each data manually, but it is too time-consuming. Alternatively, to flip data order of row vertically, you can insert a series of sequence numbers besides the column data, and sort them with expanding the selection. However, this way is not available to reverse number orders of column horizontally. However, with Kutools for Excel's Flip Horizontal Range and Flip Vertical Range, you can easily reverse or flip data order of columns or rows with cell formatting quickly as follows:

Reverse data order of multiple columns horizontally with Flip Horizontal Range

Reverse date order of multiple rows vertically with Flip Vertical Range
