Default Find cell containing a letter

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!
