Word: Change case
September 2, 2010A quick keyboard shortcut for changing the case of selected text in Word:
Shift+F3.
Depending on the case of the words you want to change, and what case you want to change them too, you may have to press Shift+F3 a couple of times in succession to get the case you want.
For example, if the selected text is all lower case and you want all upper case, you have to press the Shift+F3 key combination twice — the first time changes the case to initial capitals for each selected word, and the second changes the text to all upper case. To change back to lower case, press Shift+F3 again.
If you have more than 1 word/phrase to change; use F4 Repeat rather than having to press Shift+F3. Use Replace if you want to change a Name or Abbreviation throughout the document.
Thanks! I didn’t even think of using F4 to repeat the last action for a multi-toggle situation with Shift+F3.
