Trick Change Number In Excel From The Far Right To The Far Left Instead | Exceltip2day


Hello there.

I'm Michael Leng. Today, in my blog "Exceltip2day", I'm going to talk about:

How to change the number the far right to the left.


Tip Quiz


Do you know what is the shortcut Excel to display the Find and Replace Dialog Box?

The trick for today, suppose we have to fill out the cells with some of the numbers and we want them returning in the opposite way.

The number we have typed in immediately went to the far right of the cells in a row. But we want to make the number go to the far left instead!

How are we able to do that in Excel?

I mean our original data like this;
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... and so on until end up at the number 100.

Moreover, we want it to be as below;
100 99 98 97 96 95 94 93 92 91 and so on ..3 2 1 0.

We have three ways to do it.

👉 1] You use transpose paste function systematically below:
  • Transpose it to make it vertical (Copy / Paste Special and select transpose).
  • Sort the data set with the standard sorting function.
  • Select all active cells again and copy.
  • Paste with "Special Transpose" again.
It will look like this flow "Copy data from the horizontal active cells > Transpose Paste to vertical column cells > Sorting data as needed > Copy data from the vertical active cells again > Transpose Paste to horizontal row cells > Done."   

👉 2] Suppose you put them by each number is in its individual cell and horizontally. In addition, the numbers are running up to 100. Starting from cell "A1" with the number "1", "B1" with the number "2", and so on until the last number "100" will be in cell "CV1"

Therefore, you just put the formula "=" in cell A2 as = CV1, cell B2 as "=CW1", and so on until the last cell in CW2.

The method no. 2 above can be applied and used as your permanent template too.

👉 3] You simply enter the number "100" in cell "A1", "99" in "B1", select the two cells (A1&B1) and move the mouse cursor to lower right corner of the cell "B1", once the fill handle(black small square) appears, just click on the fill handle and drag thru the cells on the right side upon the end cell as needed.


Tip Answer

 a. It's a Ctrl+C.

 b. It's a Ctrl+I.

 c. It's a Ctrl+F.
