Answer:

First sort the array using Array.Sort and then use Array.Reverse

Eg.


int[] number = new int[] {6, 4, 7};

        Array.Sort(number); // sort in ascending order

        foreach (int i in number)

        {

            lblMessage.Text += i + " <br />";

        }

        // reverse ie descending order

        Array.Reverse(number);

        lblMessage.Text += "<hr />";

        foreach (int i in number)

        {

            lblMessage.Text += i + " <br />";

        }
