This article rpovide even code that you can used for your purpose.
And validating Special characters you should well understand the WILDCARDS
For More information please read MSDN and your asp.net notes

There are various types of validation for ASP.NET server controls[^].

The MSDN link lists all of them and also contains detailed information and example for each of them.

In your case you will probably RegularExpressionValidator[^] or you may write your custom validation.

To read more about validation controls, see here - ASP.NET Validation Controls[^].

You may also search Google for "validation on asp.net" if you need more options and details.

Hope this helps!
