I'm still searching through Google and whatnot, but not finding anything off the bat ... is there some way of creating a 'REVERSE INDEX' on a column in a table?

For instance, when I do a 'CLUSTER' to sort a table based on an INDEX, I'd like to sort it in reverse order, so would need the INDEX to go from 'GREATEST to LOWEST', vs 'LOWEST to GREATEST' ...

use something like
select * into new_table from old_table order by some_key desc;


Thx
