Sometimes the project you're working on requires you to type things out in all caps. Maybe it's required by the client's lawyers, maybe it's just part of the design aesthetic. I've had projects where the designer wanted all of the text in caps, but all of the legalese and copy was handed over to me in Sentence case. When I'm handed a 3-4 page document of rules or terms, the last thing I want to do is spend my night typing it out.
For this, just open up Microsoft Word, paste in the text to be converted to uppercase, select all and Shift-F3. VOILA! I use this method because, for the life of me, I can't find the "To Uppercase" function in Word 2007.
Yes, I know I could probably do this dynamically in Flash, append ".toUppercase" to some code in my ActionScript, but not all projects are Flash and having to do that seems silly.
