Hi Guillermo,
To disallow a single character, you could require the data to match a pattern
(under the field properties tab). Wildcards can be used for the pattern, so
the following pattern would require a string at least two characters long:
%__%
You could extend that to %__________% for a minimum of 10 characters, or so on.
As far as invalid words go, Remedy has a whitepaper available on how to
integrate spell-checking. You could implement that, then tweak the workflow to
not allow submit or modify unless the spell-check find no invalid words.
The issue with the above would be: If the end user adds the invalid word to
their dictionary file, it would be considered a valid word at that point. You
could mitigate that by pushing a dictionary to the user at each logon via a run
process.

Hi dear listers!!
How can I validate that a user types a correct Word in a character field??, for
example, not accept only one punctuation character (comma, point, etc), or only
one letter, or not valid word ("nnnn", "aaaa" for example)
Any idea?
Thanks in advance
Greetings
