I have a table with a column, lets call it identifier, that is defined
as varchar(8) that should never contain lower case letters. Its a
large table. Is there a way to query the table to see if any values
in this column are lower case and to get a list out? The user
interface application that users use prevents them from adding an
entry in lower case now, but didn't in earlier version.

Not sure if this is over simple and perhaps this would be a concern on
a very large table but
select * from table where identifier <> upper(identifier);
would give a list of all where the entry is not all uppercase?
