Default Checking input for alphabet (i.e. words)

Dear Most Valued Experts,

I know that to check for numeric input you us the
IsNumeric function. I want to check if the user has typed
in a word or alpha characters. Is there something similar
to the IsNumeric to check for alpha characters? Thanks in
advance.
