User input validation in Ksh scripting?

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to validate a user input whether an alphabetic, number, or wild char in unix Korn shell scripting & don't mind to give me a hint & syntax? I write a script to accept user inputs but I'm stuck at validating data integrity, so I'm asking for helps :(. Any helps/suggestions are appreciated.

TIA,
-Chris
