Changing the origin

Hi,
I'm desperate here. I'm trying to plot data into a line graph. I need the
horizontal axis to start (at the origin) with the larger numbers and decrease
in numerical value as it extends out. No matter which way I enter the data it
keeps automatically setting the origin at 0,0. Any suggestions?

Have you tried Format Axis and checking the Reverse Order box?
You may need to change the Crosses Axis setting
best wishes
