ALL CAPS to Lowercase Letters In Word 2010
Have you ever typed an entire sentence and accidentally left the caps lock key turned on? Is your caps lock key broken? In this article I will show you how to convert those annoying UPPERCASE TEXT into lowercase text in Word 2010. You can also convert your text into the following:
  • Sentence case will put a capital letter at the beginning of each sentence that you have highlighted and make all the rest lower case
  • lowercase will make all the text lower case
  • UPPERCASE will make all the text upper case
  • Capitalize Each Word will put a capital letter at the start of each word
  • tOGGLE cASE will change the case of every letter selected. Upper will become lower, lower will become upper.
Just open Word 2010 on your computer. Copy Paste the text there. Select all the text which you want to convert, now click the Home tab, as highlighted below, next click the Change Case, icon as highlighted below and select the lowercase.

Convertanytexttoanycase


Extra Tip: Try the keyboard shortcut - select the text you wish to modify then whilst holding down the Shift key tap the F3 key (tap it again to cycle through CAPITAL, lower case and Sentence case

    if you are folks that love to use shortcut, use SHIFT+F3 to toggle all caps, title caps or lowercase

    I selected Sentence Case. My letter did not switch from capital letters to small. The letters switched to a smaller case.

    @Patricia Hill

    Sentence case = makes capital letters for the beginning of sentences only and the rest lower case
    lower case = makes all text lower case
    UPPER CASE = makes all the text CAPITAL LETTERS
    Capitalize Each Word = makes the First Letter Of Each Word A Capital Letter
    tOGGLE cASE = swaps your CAPS to lower case and lower case to CAPS

    Hope that helped. :)

    SHIFT-CONTROL-A should turn pesky caps lock into lowercase.
