Correcting ALL CAPS in Microsoft Outlook / PowerPoint / Word

by Fred Lecavalier on Dec.07, 2009, under TechSup

I’m sure everybody goes through this at some point…

You are typing away in Microsoft Outlook, PowerPoint or Word, and midway through your text you realize that your CAPS LOCK is on.  Standard reflex is to erase all the CAPS and retype.

Fortunately, there is a feature to convert capitalized text.

Let’s say you type the following sentence with CAPS LOCK on:

• I AM A LEAF ON THE WIND. WATCH HOW I SOAR.

To correct, select the text, and press “Shift & F3″.

Using it once will give you:

• i am a leaf on the wind. watch how i soar.

Using it twice will give you:

• I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how i soar.

Hopefully this prevents you from having to retype long sentences…
