How can I select a field in a table that has one or many invalid characters. I'm looking for any of these characters (!,*,&,$,^,%,#,?,\ or @) in an customer code field. Most records don't have any and some might only have 1 or all of the characters in any order. This question might sound like bs but I really do need this so any help you may be able to offer would be greatly appreciated.

PS - If I didn't describe it well enough above this is kind of what I'm looking for.

SELECT CustomerCode FROM Customers WHERE (!,*,&,$,^,%,#,?,\ or @) IN CustomerCode."
