Ans:You can use IsAlpha function. 

If ?Not IsAlpha(MYRECORD.NAME.Value) Then 
/* do error processing */ 
Error MsgGet(<MsgSet>, <MsgNum>, "default error message"); 
End-if;

IsAlpha:

Syntax

IsAlpha(String)

Description

Use the IsAlpha function to determine if String contains only textual characters, including alphabetic

characters

Returns:

A Boolean value: true if the string contains only alphabetic and textual characters, false if it contains any numbers, punctuation or spaces.
