Hi Lucia,

In the refGene table, the length of a gene (including introns) will be 
txEnd - txStart. You can retrieve this information from the Table 
Browser (http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables). Select a clade, 
genome, and assembly of your choice, then make the following selections:

group: Genes and Gene Prediction Tracks
track: refSeq Genes
table: refGene
region: genome
identifiers: if you have a list of ids, you can paste or upload a file here
filter: click 'create', then in the "Free-form query" filed, type in 
'txEnd - txStart > 1000000', click 'submit'
output format: all fields from selected table
output file: enter a file name to save your results to a file, or leave 
blank to display results in the browser

Click 'get output'.

For more information on how to use the Table Browser, please refer to 
our help pages:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTablesHelp.html

Please contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further 
questions.
