Wrt to (2), you can clean that up before you start; see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/CleanWebText.htm
Wrt to (3), I had no trouble applying UPPERCASE to d7abc using Format |
Change Case, but you could also use Ctrl+Shift+A to apply All Caps
formatting.

Yes, I noticed that behavior. I liked how I did not have to select
(hilite)
a word, but merely had to place the text cursor somehwere on/in the word,
and
press SHIFT+F3 to toggle through the options for that word.
Change Case (SHIFT+F3) did have appear to have some limitations:
1) Since I wanted to select large blocks of text and reformat them in one
fell swoop, the all-lowercase option provided the best solution. I then
only
had to edit the first word of every sentence, and SHIFT+F3 was good at
that,
a word at a time.
2) Perhaps the CRLFs that came in from Notepad caused this function to not
work properly, but when using the sentence option, the first character on
each line was capitalized, which caused extra work to re-edit. That's
why I
went with all lowercase.
3) Words (character sequences) that I later wanted to make all caps, like
"d7abc", did not work with SHIFT+F3. I could not make them all caps
without
manually retyping. I think the number in the character sequence caused
different behavior.
Thanks again. Todd

Shift+F3 is great if it happens to include the capitalization option
you're
looking for, but it includes *either* Title Case for Sentence case
depending
on the text selected.

Thanks Shauna. Don't know how I missed the "FormatChange Case..",
but
that
fixed me up perfect! The Shift+F3 is good too - a bit faster.
