We’ll be using the MySQL built-in function char_length to demonstrate how to filter and sort based on a size of a columns width in characters.
Sort by length of column
Select title, char_length(title) as title_length From tblData Order by char_length(title) desc
Find long title by filtering on the length of a column
Select title, char_length(title) as title_length From tblData Having char_length(title) > 20 Order by char_length(title) desc
