Hi Lori,
In case what you're asking is:
"how can I get form submissions to insert at the top instead of the bottom"
Here's a different post I answered where I explained how to do that with a fairly simple script. You create a new tab called "Form Reversed" and the new entries will be added to the top there.

Hi Lori Spencer,
The results sheet/tab in your file will always appear in ascending order. This allows new responses to be easily appended to the list as the come in. In order to place the items in descending order, you will need to use something like SORT() on a secondary sheet/tab that will show you the items in descending order.
I hope this helps!
