tested it I typed a@@@ in the field and it lets it go through.....

**
I would try something like

NOT ('Field' LIKE "%[0-9a-zA-Z\-]%")

That would be the run-if for a filter throwing an error about incorrect format

Subject: Character String Check

**
I need to check a character field to make sure that the string in the field is 
alphanumeric and the only special characters that are allowed are a hyphen "-" 
or an underscore.  No spaces allowed either.

I've tried a bunch of workflow and it's just not working for me.
