I just finished my June newsletter over the weekend. I use a lot of material e-mailed to me. I have one member that loves his "cap lock" computer feature. The problem is that I can't cut and paste that material, or maybe I don't know how to.

I had to rewrite the complete article, bummer! \:\(

I will be sending out a mass e-mail to all of my members before next month's newsletter. I really don't need the extra work.

Wayne,

The easy way to fix that is to import the article into Word first, which has a change case feature. Here's what you do -

1. Select the text you want to change or select all - Ctrl + A or EDIT - SELECT ALL
2. Choose FORMAT | CHANGE CASE. This opens the dialog box that gives you the choice between Sentence case, lower case, UPPER CASE, Title Case, and tOGGLE cASE.

Next, choose the type of formatting you want to use from the below choices and click OK.

* Sentence case: capitalizes the first letter of the first word and puts the rest in lowercase.

* Lower case: changes everything to lowercase, with nothing capitalized.

* Title case: capitalizes the first letter of every word. Toggle case changes capital letters to lowercase and vice versa. (You don't use this choice much anymore because if you make a mistake such at typing tOGGLE, using the Shift key while Caps lock is on, Word automatically corrects it and turns off the Caps lock.) Alternatively, press the Shift+F3 shortcut key repeatedly to cycle through three formats: UPPER CASE, lowercase and Title Case.

Note: when you use Title Case, you'll most likely have to go back and make a few corrections. In titles, small words (such as: articles, coordinate conjunctions, and prepositions, such as "the," "and," "in," "on," "for," etc.) should not be capitalized unless they are the first word in the title.

Hope that helps, Wayne!

Thanks Judy. I can always count on you and maybe someone had this problem too that now knows a "better way", the "Judy Way". \:\)
