Fabulous. Thanks Razzak. I don't use too many format masks because I seem to struggle with them. This is exactly what I was looking for. This probably qualifies as a "DUH". I should have thought of it....

Bob,
Did you know that you can use ">" option as "Format Mask"
to achieve the same goal?
If a ">" character appears in the mask, all characters
that follow are in uppercase until the end of the mask
or until a "<" character is encountered.
