If you realize after you type some text that you want to change its case, you don't have to retype it. Instead, just select the text, choose Format, Change Case to display the Change Case dialog box (see Figure 6.10), choose the option you want, and click OK.

Figure 6.10. Use the Change Case dialog box to change the case of text without retyping it.

The Title Case option capitalizes articles and prepositions. So "a day at the beach" would become "A Day At The Beach." If you'd rather leave articles and prepositions lowercase (as in "A Day at the Beach "), you need to change their case manually.

The keyboard shortcut for changing case is Shift+F3. Select the text and then press Shift+F3 one or more times until you see the case you want.
