Answer / mrclock

A.thirumalareddy was on the right track, but here is a
revised and working version of his code:

Function IsAlphaNumeric()
Dim strText: strText = "QTP is an automation testing tool
12345" 'Search String
Dim ianRegEx
Set ianRegEx = New RegExp
ianRegEx.Pattern = "[^a-z0-9]" 'Define Search Pattern
ianRegEx.Global = True 'Apply Globally
ianRegEx.IgnoreCase = True 'Ignore upper/lower case
IsAlphaNumeric = ianRegEx.Test(strText) 'Use Test method
for a True/False test
msgbox IsAlphaNumeric 'Display True/False
End Function

call IsAlphaNumeric()
