Next time post you code directly in the thread using code tags as described here: How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read?
A lot people can't/won't download attachments.
It would also help if explained exactly how the code is not working - are you getting error? Does it do something you don't expect?
What you want can be done simply with the translate function:
SQL> SELECT trim(TRANSLATE('BASD$%',
'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!"#$%&()''*+,-/:;<=>?_',
2 3 ' ')
4 )
5 FROM dual;
T
-
SQL> SELECT trim(TRANSLATE('BA12 %^%',
'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ!"#$%&()''*+,-/:;<=>?_',
2 3 ' ')
4 )
FROM dual; 5
TRIM(TRANSLATE(
---------------
12 ^
If the string returned by the above is anything other than null then you have disallowed characters

Based on code below.
First..if i put all alphaphet. it shows number(digit) error not the alphabet.
Second ..If i put the digit. It shows alphabet error..
Third...If I put alphabet and digit..it shows no symbol input..
forth... If I put alphabet, digit and symbol...stil it say.."No symbol input" and cannot be saved..
Is it my code wrong or I missed some thing.
If i put that code as a function and return the boolean...How to call it use "when the button pressed" in PL/SQL.
Thanks.

It is awfully formatted. Read link Cookiemonster provided once again, please.
As of your code: work on it some more! Show your debugging skills! If it is too complex now, start from scratch, solving ONE problem at a time (the first one you mentioned; when you are satisfied with it, move on to the second one, and so forth).
As of a function returning Boolean: depending on what it returns (TRUE because input string is OK, or FALSE because it is not; or, you might even turn the logic upside down and return FALSE if the string is OK, but that's rather confusing). Suppose that it returns TRUE for a valid input. Then you'd do something like this:
if f_input_ok then
message('Congratulations, you did it right!');
else
message('Nope, something went wrong');
end if;
