 Something like  f - factor(f, levels=rev(levels(f))) will do this.
 
 For the horizontal factor, give the levels in the order you want them to
 appear (which might not be the reverse of alphabetic).

  How do you control the ordering of factors that controls the placement

  'Q1','Q2',Q3','Q5' and of course I want the plot to place Question Q1
  at the top and Question Q5 at the bottom of the graphical output.

One additional comment: if you think top to bottom is the natural
order (which lattice doesn't), try using

as.table = TRUE

  histogram() does the opposite as 5 is larger than 1. Similarly my
  'AlertFormat' factor is a textual category, and I need the data to read
  from left to right (representing old to new) , with 'New A  V' on the
  right, and 'Pre-existing A  V' on the left, which is the opposite to
  how histogram plots.

 The current lattice output from what's below is here:- 
 http://www.arch.usyd.edu.au/~sfer9710/latticeoutput.pdf

 All I really want to do is reverse the placement entirely from what I 
 have received above.

 I've checked the help to no avail, and have looked through the r-help 
 archive. I love lattice, but always have problems of this nature. I hope 
 someone can help me solve them.
