C#, 17ms, if you really want a check.
class Program
{
static bool IsPandigital(int n)
{
int digits = 0; int count = 0; int tmp;
for (; n > 0; n /= 10, ++count)
{
if ((tmp = digits) == (digits |= 1 << (n - ((n / 10) * 10) - 1)))
return false;
}
return digits == (1 << count) - 1;
}
static void Main()
{
int pans = 0;
Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
sw.Start();
for (int i = 123456789; i <= 123987654; i++)
{
if (IsPandigital(i))
{
pans++;
}
}
sw.Stop();
Console.WriteLine("{0}pcs, {1}ms", pans, sw.ElapsedMilliseconds);
Console.ReadKey();

}
For a check that is consistent with the Wikipedia definition in base 10:
const int min = 1023456789;
const int expected = 1023;
static bool IsPandigital(int n)
{
if (n >= min)
{
int digits = 0;
for (; n > 0; n /= 10)
{
digits |= 1 << (n - ((n / 10) * 10));
}
return digits == expected;
}
return false;
}
To enumerate numbers in the range you have given, generating permutations would suffice.
The following is not an answer to your question in the strict sense, since it does not implement a check. It uses a generic permutation implementation not optimized for this special case - it still generates the required 720 permutations in 13ms (line breaks might be messed up):
static partial class Permutation
{
/// <summary>
/// Generates permutations.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Type of items to permute.</typeparam>
/// <param name="items">Array of items. Will not be modified.</param>
/// <param name="comparer">Optional comparer to use.
/// If a <paramref name="comparer"/> is supplied,
/// permutations will be ordered according to the
/// <paramref name="comparer"/>

/// <returns>Permutations of input items.</returns>

@andras: Can you try and run your code to generate the nine digit Pandigital numbers? What time does it take?
