The regexec seems not to work. So what I'm doing wrong, where I have failed?

From what I'm seeing, that expression should match a single character, A through Z, 0 through 9, or dash or underscore.

I recommend https://regex101.com/ to help debug regular expressions.

You might want to try this expression: ^[A-Z0-9-_]+$

As a side note, I've found the embedded SQL functions REGEXP_* to be incredibly useful.
