Changing small letters back to proper Capital letters in .doc

HELP!!!!

 

I have a 40 page .doc story document that is all caps. I wish to

change it into regular type print, small letters.

 

However, it's easy to use the format change in Word, but how do I

change all the letters that should be capitalized back into caps?

Letters like I, or proper nouns, or even the first word of every

sentence.

 

Don't tell me to manually change everyone. There must be some easy

way to go back and forth between all caps and regular print.

 

What is it?

Choose Format / Change case / Sentence case. Fix the rest manually by

selecting one proper name and changing it to title case, then select each

other proper name in turn and use Ctrl+Y. If the same names appear

repeatedly, use Edit / Replace with the Match Case option ticked.
