Word format to Lower case!!!!

[WorkinOnIt13]

<Font color=Blue><font size=2> Is there a way anyone may know to revert Caps lock back to Lower case in Microsoft Word??? The document was originally typed in caps lock so changed the Font option, is unavailable! Meaning normally if you type it in Lowercase, you can convert to Caps, then later redo to normal Lowercase, not an option!!! Any help is appreciated!!!! Thanks guys!

I don't really know VBA for Word, but this seems to be working for me.

Assuming you have selected the text you want to make lowercase:

Sub CapsToLower()

Selection = LCase(Selection.Text)

End Sub

Hi

In Word 2002 you have the option to change the texts existing case to:

Sentence case
lower case
UPPER CASE
Title Case
tOGGLE cASE

so why get involved in VB?

have I missed something

I know the OP was talking about the options available under Format\Font (where you can check the box for "All caps" and it will update it), but I forgot about that toggle thing.

...I need to start poking around Word more. I've forgotten a lot of what I used to know. Like the toggle thing.

<font color=Blue>well I am using Word 2003, I think the document was created in Word 2002, so If I use word 2002, where do I go to get the change options at???

<font color=Blue><font size=3>Nevermind guys, I figured it out, thanks to the help of Microsoft.com! Thanks again though!

Wish I read the thread earlier.

Quick way to toggle case is to highlight and shift-F3. This will toggle the highlighted selection.

Wow...Thanks!

That SHift+F3 option is exactly what I was looking for thanks!
