Thank you Mr. Jamieson, I have it.

If your ADDRESSBLOCK works OK, you should be able to use the character
format switch \*Upper, e.g.

use Alt-F9 to display field codes. Your Addressblock field will look
something roughly like the following (mine's obviously intended for use in
the U.K.):

{ ADDRESSBLOCK \f "_TITLE0_ _FIRST0_ _LAST0_ _SUFFIX0_
_COMPANY_,
_STREET1_
_STREET2_
_CITY_
_STATE_
_POSTAL_

_COUNTRY_" \l 2057 \c 2 \e "United Kingdom" \d }

then type \*Upper before the }, giving you

{ ADDRESSBLOCK \f "_TITLE0_ _FIRST0_ _LAST0_ _SUFFIX0_
_COMPANY_,
_STREET1_
_STREET2_
_CITY_
_STATE_
_POSTAL_

_COUNTRY_" \l 2057 \c 2 \e "United Kingdom" \d \*Upper }

But I have the same question as Graham - do you really need to use
uppercase? If it's a requirement of your postal service, that would be
useful to know.

In Microsoft 2003 mail merge, I would like to write the address block in
upper case, ie..MR & MRS SMITH and the greeting with regular letter script
ie..Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
I will be using window envelopes, so the address block will need to be in
caps.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
