That's a case of the cure being worse than the sickness. By the time
you've finished carefully repeatedly selecting just the characters you
want changed and repeatedly going through the menus to change the
case, you could much more easily and quickly have just deleted the
whole section and re-typed it from scratch.

OpenOffice needs these case change options to be added:
1. Sentence Case (the first character of a section capitalized, all
other characters lower case)
2. Title Case (the first letter of each word capitalized, all other
characters lower case)
3. Toggle Case (individually invert case of each individual character
in a selected section)

I've also noticed a strange capitalization behavior with Writer:
Instead of actually capitalizing characters, it sometimes uses some
kind of code that makes the characters display as capitals, but the
actual characters remain lower case. This is most apparent when a
completed file is saved as a text-only file, and certain words that
appear to be all caps in Writer are either all lower case or random
case in the text file.
