Answer 1

Using the Regex class for regular expressions you can use:

If Regex.IsMatch(myString, "^[A-Za-z0-9]+$") Then
    'Do stuff
End If

EDIT: I forgot to add the ^ and the $ to denote that the match should go from start to finish on the string. You'll also need to put a \\s in there if whitespace is allowed.

You can parse the string and then check the ascii values to make sure they are only Alpha-numeric. Here's some pseudocode:

StrLength = Len(Text) 

For x = 1 To StrLength
   sChar = Mid$(Text, x, 1)'Gets the x'th charcter in Text
   bASCII = Asc(sChar)      'Gets ASCII value of character
   if bASCII(not in Range) Then ERROR
Next x

Here's a link for to the Ascii Values: http://www.asciitable.com/
