How to easily change the case in text in Microsoft Word

Contents

Did you type a line of text and then realize that it should have been capitalized differently?? Instead of rewriting the line, you can quickly and easily change the case of any text in Word without retyping it.

To change the case of text in a Word document, select the text you want to change and make sure the Home tab is activated. After, Click the button “Cambiar caso” on the Home tab.

Select the type of capitalization you want from the drop-down menu. The following types of capitalization are available:

  • Prayer case: capitalizes the first letter of the first word in a sentence.
  • lowercase: converts all letters to lowercase.
  • CAPITAL LETTERS: Makes each letter UPPER CASE.
  • Capitalize every word: capitalizes the first letter of each word. This is useful for titles or headings.
  • TOGGLE CASE: This converts the first letter of each word to lowercase and the rest of the letters to UPPER CASE..

Toggling uppercase and lowercase may seem like a strange option, but it is useful if you have been typing text without realizing that the Caps Lock key is on and the AutoCorrect option to correct accidental use of the Caps Lock key is not on. You can highlight the affected text and use the TOGGLE CASE option to correct capitalization.

For our example, we are going to make the selected text be all in uppercase or UPPER CASE.

The selected text changes to the selected uppercase type.
