Hi, I am sorry for being so vague. The values are not as simple as
jane20,

Hi, I am attempting to do a natural sort from within mysql, if possible.
So, for example, jane2 would come before jane10, and normal strings would
still sort as expected. I found some solutions, like using length for the
numerical part, but that only works if the strings are the same length
I'm trying to get some 'release/version numbers' to sort properly.
mysql SELECT ReleaseID, Name FROM releases ORDER BY Name DESC;
+---+-+
| ReleaseID | Name|
+---+-+
|18 | Unspecified |
|20

Here's my full test solution:
use test;
drop table if exists releases;
create temporary table releases
(
releaseid int(10) unsigned not null auto_increment primary key,
name varchar(255)
)engine=myisam;
insert into releases ( name ) values
( 'Unspecified' ),
( 'Next Patch' ),
(
Oh, and here's the output (Sorry):
+---+-+
| releaseid | name|
+---+-+
| 1 | Unspecified |
| 2 | Next Patch |
| 3 | LOCset |
| 4 | Abashiri|

Looking thru the MYSQL archives I see a few people had interest in a natural
sort method to sort text fields
containing numbers. I to would like this feature. Has anything been
done for this?
Currently sorts text like:
