Hello everyone,



Is there a way to use find and replace to find every ALL CAP words before a colon and change it to a capital words. for Example:

HISTORY OF INJURY:

changed to


History Of Injury:


I have hundreds of these in reports I need to convert. This will help me save more time considering that now most of my clients are outsourcing reports to India! Thank you all for all that you do!

Simply set up the Find dialog with this wildcard search:

Find What:
[A-Z ]{1,}:
Choose "Highlight All".

When all the instances are highlighted (i.e. selected), On the Home tab, in the Font group, click Change Case, then choose "Capitalize Each Word".

Wow! Thank you!! Thank you so much! I don't know who you are but you have saved me (liteally) dozens of hours of time!!

how do i get them to all change at the same time? instead of doing it one by one while they are all highlighted?
