Default Why can I only type my text area in capital letters

When typing in Word my text area is all caps. My cap lock key is disengaged.
This also happens in my Internt Explorer email text area. What do I need to
do to change it to regular typing?

In Word, look at the Format Font dialog -- if the "All Caps" box is
checked, that's the problem. It might be set that way in the Normal style.
If your version of Word is 2002 or later, look at the Reveal Formatting task
pane to see where the setting is.

If you're using Outlook for email with Word as its editor, fixing Word would
fix both problems. When you say "Internet Explorer email", do you mean
Outlook or is it a web-based mail host?
