Default reverse order of paragraphs, word 2010

I've been trying to do something that i supposed to be very simple, that is, simply to reverse the order of paragraphs in a very long (150,000 line) .rtf document. If I selesct number/descending in home/paragraph/sort, I end up with what looks to be random garbage; in the sample below, line order (note, not the numbers themselves) that started 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, 11 becomes line order 3,4,2,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,1:


1. A yeah, I damaged mine while reversing... Felt like a right idiot ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 3:28pm
2. B I expect I’ll wreck it! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 12:06pm
3. B That’s not going to happen today ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 12:05pm
4. A Just thought, if you’re not setting out too early, can you drop in before you set off? ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 9:38am
5. A bye! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
6. A yes, go to work! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
7. B Gotta go to work!¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
8. A thats a bit over the top! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
9. A blimey! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
10. B I bought the one with all the options! ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am
11. A Did you get the cheap one in the end? ¬ ¬ Jan 11, 2015 8:35am

obviously, waht I wanted was line order, 11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1




Will I need a macro to acheive this?


If so, is there one 'pinned' somewheere on this forum that does this? It seems like such a simple thing
