A quick Google found this in the Adobe forums [forums.adobe.com]:
var custom = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("id", "custom", {
validation: function( value, options ){
return /[a-z]/gi.test( value ); // your validation
}
});

Thanx a million Fotiman--worked like a charm. I had passed right by that one because in the post at Adobe forums the question said it was looking for only allow where I was looking for alpha only. That will teach me to search more venues next time. A good thing also though because anyone else in the same predicament can benefit from your post.
Does need modified a tad though because it will allow anything to be entered as is if an alpha char is included. Testing now with /^[a-z]$/

I'm back at being confused again--while adding the ^ at the beginning and $ at the end made it impossible to add anything but alpha characters it shows an error if more than one char is entered.

try
/^[a-z]*$/
that is zero or more alphas

Thank you so much daveVk--that hit the nail on the head. Now I can sleep--been messing with this thing for hours since before the 1st post.
