What's the best way to select columns that contain characters other than A-Z or 0-9? I have some tables that were loaded from data that was originally EBCDIC. Some of the data contain characters that I can't identify (but I know they're not Nulls, Blanks, or Tabs).

Try selecting the data as ascii charaters.

Select ascii(column_name) ....
