Never mind Harold, I totally forgot you're on a Mac now. !!!! Metapad
is for Windows.

You shouldn't use MSWord for HTML code, it can introduce errors into the
code (from what I've heard, I've never used it personally for that).
But if all you want to use it for is for quick editing of certain
things,
then just past the RAW HTML text into a webpage, it would be ok.
You can use Metapad to change the case of any text via highlight and
right click, or, its "Find and replace" option which can be
case-sensitive. It's free. (You can also make any links in it
clickable). http://liquidninja.com/metapad/

From: "Harold B."
Hello again ... let's see if I can explain the problem. I'm using MS
Word (actually Word:Mac 2008 but it probably works the same) and have a
long page with some html tags where I want to make some changes from
caps to lower case. Changes are as follows:
html#ABCDEF .... the caps might be 3 to 6 different letters, and I want
to change the caps to lower case (hundreds of them)
a name="ABCDEF ... again, the caps might be 3 to 6 different letters,
and again, I want to change the caps to lower case (I'm sure the same
number as in the above caps)
The reason I'm making these changes is that I once read that Hugh
suggested that in CSS it is best to use lower case and while I'm making
many changes on a website, I might as well make these changes too.
Question is ... using Find-Replace with that special section usually
found in the lower right hand corner, how might I make these wholesale
all-in-one-shot changes? --- Harold (and happy holidays to all and if
these are not your holidays, happy days to you
too).=========================
