I have a list of records that include letters, numbers, spaces, _, -, . ,etc. 

 

Is there a way to flag any records that include non ASCII Characters?

letters, numbers, spaces, _, -, . ,  are ascii .  

Can you include sample  data  with  different  flags   ?   Regex tool can be used  to identify different characters.

You can test  regular expression  here :  https://regexr.com/

An expression of:

 

 

REGEX_Match(Field1,".*[^\x01-\x7F].*", 0)

 

 

will create a True if non ASCII (1-127) character are present a False otherwise.

 

Quick sample attached
