Not terribly familiar with regex, but I'm guessing it's going to make life much easier for my current need. 

I need to validate that a string contains the correct sequence of numbers and letters, so that it always follows the format "AA99999A", where A can be any A-Z character and 9 can be any 0-9 character. Other than exploding the string and validating the characters individually, how would the best way to handle this be?

The result can be a simple true / false as I don't need to specify which characters are incorrect
