How to type in all capitals

I just entered a list of airport codes, only to have it converted to lowercase. (3 times ) Other posts in the same thread didn't have this problem. Do I have some sort of switch turned on>

The software is set up to not allow a title in all caps. At least 1 letter has to be in lower case. Even as a mod, I have no way to override that when I edit a title for a member.

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Put the text between code brackets.

I've had this problem before as well. Just add a word or so that's not all in caps. I am not sure why one needs this automatic override turned on, but oh well.

DUMB TRICK.

YOU CAN PUT WHATEVER YOU WANT IN CAPS AS LONG AS ONE LETTER IS LOWERCASE.

IT WAS MENTIONED PRIOR, HERE'S MY LITTLE TRICK.

lc

THAT SOLVES THE LOWER CASE REQUIREMENT ^
