Find cell containing a letter
Did you copy formula exaclty? When I copy your examples into A2 on my sheet,
it works. Perhaps Stan's workbook can shed some light?

I placed 000-00A-0000 in A2 and typed your formula in B2
I got "False" as a result.
I then ran your formula on 000-000-0000 and I got Letter present..
What do you think?
Thank you!

If the format your dealing with is all like that:
000-000-0000
Perhaps this will do the trick:
=IF(ISNUMBER(VALUE(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"-",""))),"","Letter present")

I have a column of numbers that were scanned in and OCR often makes mistakes
inserting a "S" instead of an "8" for example or an "O" instead of an "0".
Any ideas on how I can find any cells that contain A-Z in a cell of numbers?
I tried just sorting and picking up the mistakes at the bottom, however, that
does not always work. If the list of telephone numbers 000-000-0000 contains
a letter 603-5S5-0000 this does not sort to the bottom..
Thanks for the help!
