Default small caps

I encountered this gotcha (and finally figured it out after MUCH
frustration) in an ancient DOS version of Word eons ago. Occasionally I
remember the likelihood that someone else will make the same mistake. If you
realize that you are toggling from Caps & Lowercase to Caps & Small Caps, it
helps.

As Terry says, this shortcut is good in all versions of Word. Does
*anything* happen when you press that shortcut? Note that you must have
text
selected to see the result, and the text must be lowercase (applying Small
Caps
to capital letters has no effect).

Is there a macro for small caps and if not how do I make one?


"Macro" is the wrong term. There is a keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+Shift+K,
that applies small-caps font formatting to selected text.

what version of Word? doesn't work on mine.


You found it!

I was highlighting caps to do this.

In mixed caps, works GREAT!!! Exactly a feature I was doing
manually. ...no snickering out there.

Plus, just learned the feature toggles back and forth.

Thanks again.,
