I have tables containing data in reverse chronological order. I'd
like it to be chronological so I'm thinking I can just move the
table rows around.

Seems like it would require a separate scratch file to hold the
re-ordered rows until all rows have been copied, then replace the
selection with the re-ordered rows.

This can be done in BBEdit with out a separate scratch file as follows:

Go to Text->Add/Remove Line Numbers...

Add suitable line numbers to the lines you want to reverse the order of with a space between the line number and data you want retained.

Then to to Text->Sort Lines...

Select Numbers match by value and Reverse sort. Finally go back to Add/Remove Line Numbers... to remove the line numbers previously added.

The result will be a reverse order of the data.
