I am trying to match a alphanumber string that MUST have numbers and MUST have letters in it.

How do I do that?

Use lookaheads:

^(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-zA-Z]).*$

In order for this match to succeed at least one ASCII number and at least on ASCII letter must be a part of the string.

The first thing that comes to mind would be a regex like this:

(\d.*[a-zA-Z].* | [a-zA-Z].*\d.*)

So, a digit, anything, and a letter somewhere, or a letter, anything and a digit somewhere with no beginning or end of string markings.

It's super broad, but does that help at all?
