Recently I typed an entire sentence in uppercase, (I hadaccidentally hit the 'CAPS LOCK' key), and because I'm not an expert typist I was looking down at the keyboard so did not notice until I looked up at the screen. Anyway, I wanted to press a button to select the sentence to put it into lowercase. But as far as I could tell there wasn't any!

Does anyone knowif there isa shortcut way to do this?confused3

If you're using MS Word, there is a 'Change Case' option under the 'Tools' menu. Highlight text first, then 'Tools/Change Case', then choose option, either sentence case or lower case.

Never tried to make that into a toolbar button - don't know if there's a way.

My mistake - command is under the 'Format' menu, not 'Tools'. This is on my version of Word 97.

Thank you soulrebel! clp)niceone.gifwish there was an even shorter way though.

Try this....

• On the 'Tools' menu, click 'Customise'
• A small window appears which should have a button labelled 'Keyboard' toward the bottom right-hand corner - click the button - another window opens
• On the left of this new window should be a list of your menu options (File, Edit, View, etc); click on 'Format', and the relevant menu choices should appear in another list
• Scroll down this second listuntil you find 'ChangeCase'; click on this and the current shortcut keys assigned to this command should appear in the window under where it says 'Current keys'.
• You can at this point change which keys are assigned if you want- if you do, click the 'Assign' button to confirm the choice you make.

On my work laptop 'Change Case' has Shift + F3 assigned as shortcut keys, so you might try that. Still have to highlight text, and each time you press keys it changes appearance of text.

See how that goes.....
