Default Test if Last Character in Column of Cells is Alpha Character

An even simpler construction for the test...

Sub Macro()
If Range("A1") Like "*[A-Za-z]" Then
MsgBox "Alpha"
End If
End Sub

By the way, I removed the TRIM function call because that would mask the
fact that the string ended with something other than an alpha character.

Try the below

Sub Macro()
If Right(Trim(Range("A1")), 1) Like "[A-Za-z]" Then
MsgBox "Alpha"
End If
End Sub

How do I test if the last character in Column A is a Alpha Character
Sample cell: 0238:H601X or 0238:T0624
the numbers in the cell still will show up as Text format.
How can I do an excel formula or VBA to give me a true/false if the last
character is an alpha(letter)?
