There is certainly a better use for A8 -- it is a good place to keep
track of the current version of tex.  The problem with the macro as written
is that the variable "tex" does not get updated.

Try the following

|A1     flipit
|A2     =ARGUMENT("tex",2)
|A3     =FOR("count",1,LEN(tex),1)
|A4     =if(count=1,tex,A6)
|A5     =(LEN(A4)+1)-count
|A6     =REPLACE(A4,count,1,MID(A4,(LEN(A4)+1)-count,1))
|A7     =NEXT()
|A8     =RETURN(A6)
