etrader Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 There are good ways to keep only English characters in a string. But what is the easiest way to keep all alphabetic characters (whether in English or other languages like Russian, Japanese, etc) by removing all sign characters like !@#$%^&*()":;' ?
