Asunto: [GENERAL] Method to detect certain characters in column?
A: pgsql-general@postgresql.org
Fecha: lunes, 23 junio, 2008, 5:58 pm

So I have a column that contains usernames that have characters such
as Ã(c)(R), for example: fuchÃ(c)r.. is there any way to find names
with non A-Za-z0-9?

Thanks in advance!
