Sorting by longtext?

[sumeet]

Is it possible to use a column that's 'longtext' as the value for ORDER BY?

I have a table with columns: id, name, and description.

I'd like to have the rows returned to me in order of description - alphabetically.

Is that possible?

Thanks for your time.

Not for nothin', but... why not just try it?

Yes you can do this, and it works.

Hope this helps
