Wrestling with an emailed press release today that loved making use of ALL CAPS, I finally broke down and looked online for a way to quickly change all caps to, well, not all caps. And I found it!So if you ever want to convert text in ALL CAPS to something readable in Microsoft Word, here's what you do:
- Select the target text, hold down SHIFT and press F3. This will change all the caps to lower case.
- If you hold SHIFT and press F3 again, the first letter of each sentence will be capitalized.
- Another SHIFT-F3 will return everything to all caps.
It's like magic! And saved me a lot of time rekeying stuff.
(This tip is thanks to PC Don, the "senior computer tutor," I'm ashamed to say.)

*blink, blink* Really? You can, you can do that??? Oh thank It's Noddleliness! I didn't think there was actually a way to remove the accursed all caps from a document! My thanks also go out to PC Don for this! (And, mad props to you too for doing the footwork.)
Cool Shortcut!! I usually do it the simi-short way, Format Text or tool bar selection. This will be even faster!! Thanks, Katiemom5
