Syntax:
StrReverse(string)
Parameter:
string: The string whose characters you want to reverse.
Return Value:
String: Returns the original string with the order of its characters reversed.
Example

Use Cases:
String Manipulation:
Reversing the order of words or characters for specific purposes.
Creating unique identifiers or codes.
Data encryption (though basic and not very secure).
Algorithmic Puzzles:
Solving string-related puzzles and challenges.
Implementing certain data structures (e.g., stacks).
Example: (Palindrome Check))
Sub IsPalindrome()
Dim str1 As String
Dim revStr As String
str1 = InputBox("Enter a word:")
revStr = StrReverse(str1)
If str1 = revStr Then
MsgBox "The word is a palindrome!"
Else
MsgBox "The word is not a palindrome."
End If
End Sub
