Changing text case in Word

by WordGuru · 2 comments

Quick — you need to make that entire sentence ALL IN CAPS (or In Title Case or whatever).  How do you do that without retyping it?

Easy!

  • Block the text with your mouse or keyboard as if you are going to copy or delete it.
  • In the menu bar, click Format, then click Change Case.
  • Format menu, Change Case option
  • Click the appropriate option on the dialog box:

Change Case

Voila!  Your text has been changed from one case to another!

Update: More complete instructions on this feature in versions 2002, 2003, 2007 and 2010 are posted here.

Or you could simply depress your CTRL Key and click F3. It will do the same thing for you, only quicker!
