This routine is great because not every text object in a drawing needs to be capitalized and this routine lets you simply select the text objects that you want to be capitalized.

It’s that simple…

BTW – it works with DTEXT as well as MTEXT

Here’s how:

• ALLCAPS <enter> to start
• Select text objects that are to be capitalized
• <enter> when finished selecting objects
