Just as an aside, this is a bottom posting mail list :-}.
I'm not sure if there is a way to 'force' these names to be in caps by
default, but there is a way to call them anything you like with
commands like:
\renewcommand\contentsname{TABLE OF CONTENTS}
\renewcommand\listfigurename{LIST OF FIGURES}
\renewcommand\listtablename{LIST OF TABLES}
\renewcommand\abstractname{ABSTRACT}
Although this puts the items in caps within the document and the toc.
Not sure if that's what you want. I'm also not sure what you're doing
to insert the lot, lof, and abstract into the toc in the first place,
which would play a role in all of this too.
Cheers,
