Here's the sampe I came up with.
declare @STR varchar(100), @StrRev varchar(100);
select @STR = 'able was I ere I saw elba';
select @StrRev = coalesce(@StrRev + substring(@Str, number, 1), substring(@Str, number, 1))
from dbo.Numbers
where number between 1 and len(@Str)
order by number desc;
select @STR, @StrRev;
