Changing existing lower case text to upper case

[Tnd57]

Is there a way to change the existing text in a Word 2000
document from lower case to upper case without retyping
the document

Select the text you want to change, then click on Format | Change case.

Highlight everything and do Format > Font, and there is an "all caps" option
for the font. If you need to, you can unselect this option later and still
have the original format with first-letter caps, etc.

You can also select the text and use the "change case" option in the format
menu, but I think this is permanent so if you ever want to restore the
original version you might have to do make changes manually. The "change
case" option lets you convert to "sentence," "title," etc, cases, but I
think text like "My uncle Bud works for the CIA and got an "A+" on his final
test" would not be able to automatically restore the mixed caps formatting
(unless there is some secret way to do it).

Shift-F3 toggles through the different cases

But it still won't go back to the original, it just toggles between the
prescribed styles.
