How to Change Case in Microsoft Word (e.g. UPPERCASE to lowercase)

Have you ever been typing away in Microsoft Word only to notice, when you took a breather, that all the text was capitalized because you inadvertently hit the Caps Lock key?

Well no problem, this can be quickly remedied. Just select the text and go to Format on the menu, select Change Case... and click on lowercase. This works on both Macs and PCs.

Here's an illustrated overview of that process:

1. Select the text.

2. Go to Format on the menu

3. Select Change Case...

4. Select lowercase in the Change Case window











Your text is now converted to all lower case.

There are five options in the Change Case window: Sentence case, lowercase, UPPERCASE, Title Case and tOGGLE cASE.

Examples of the five options:

  • Sentence:.............

  • lowercase:.............

  • UPPERCASE:......

  • Title Case:............

  • tOGGLE cASE:....
