Hi

Firstly let me mention I am a noob to postgres,DB and sql anyway, I have a 
column with First names and need to list names that have non-alphanumeric 
characters in them like + or * and the list goes on.  I did google a bit and 
tried:
select * from TABLE where first_name not like '%[a-z0-9]%';

However the above shows all the entries in that column and if I change it to 
Like, which should show all the entries it shows nothing.

e.g of my goal:

Column
Bob
Jane+
Harry*
John
Mike
Larry

My query should output

Jane+
Harry*
