I have a field containing a mix of either letters, numbers, or both letters and numbers. I need to pick out those records which contain one or more letters.
Is there an easy way of doing this please?
Thanks very much.

Use NumericText() function.

This returns True or false as to whether it is a number or charachter within the field
