I'm looking for an easy way to determine whether a character string contains at least one lowercase character.

I can see that %CHECK() will tell me if there's at least one character in "base" that *doesn't* appear in "comparator," but is there an easy way to determine if there's at least one character in "base" that *does* appear in "comparator"?

Or do I have to do a %CHECK with a big, long "comparator" that contains everything *but* lowercase letters?
