I've hit my limit on regular expressions.
I need to check a string to see if it contains legal characters...
A thru Z [a-z], SPACE, PERIOD, DASH/HYPHEN, APOSTROPHE [\' -,\.]
OK, this is not a problem.
My problem comes in with extended characters, as these examples...

I'm trying to build a RegExp that will see if the string is a proper name
format or not.
Names only have A thru Z, extended characters for other languages (than
English), SPACE, PERIOD, DASH/HYPHEN, APOSTROPHE

I have a RegExp to so English letters, but not the extended set...

(Ok, these are not really names, but you get the idea)
Any ideas on this?
Thanks
