Default Preventing Invalid Characters using data Validation

I'm trying to create a template for users to enter data and have it input
onto a spreadsheet, there are some conditions i need to set using data
validation and im not sure how to do it.. There cannot be any
spaces,-,&,%,#... etc.. in the fields, but Numeric and Alpha are ok. There
also can only be 10 characters in the field which is easy to define. I tried
using the custom validation but Im not familiar with how to create a formula
to achieve this goal.
