Hi Sophie,

you want IS_MATCH('^[a-zA-Z áÁéÉíÍóÓúÚ]+$',...) and you can drop
IS_NOT_EMPTY(...).
The regex above means: match a string composed only of the characters
listed from beginning to end with minimum length=1.
Yours said: match a substring anywhere in the string that has zero or
more chars in a-zA-Z followed by zero or more blanks followed by...
