Converting Text to Uppercase in a Macro

There are two ways you can convert text to uppercase in Word. The first is to use the AllCaps property and the second is to use the Case property. The following shows how to use both methods.

Selection.Font.AllCaps = True
Selection.Range.Case = wdUpperCase

Both of these statements assume you have selected the text to be changed prior to issuing the statements. The difference between them is that the AllCaps property controls only the formatting of the text--it only appears as uppercase. The Case property, on the other hand, actually changes the letters in the selection so they are uppercase.
