Switching between upper and lower case

I can't figure out how to do this:

Much of my work involves DNA sequences which I just treat as text. One of the things that I do quite a bit is convert part of a sequence from upper to lower case. Taking this:

TATTAGGGATAATATTCACGCCAGAATGCGTTCGCACA

and changing it to this:

TATTAGGGATAATATtcaCGCCAGAATGCGTTCGCACA

Or some such thing. In other programs I can just highlight a stretch of characters and click on an upper case or lower case button and it changes it for me. Does Mellel have this switch? I can't find it if it does.

Not really. There are services you can install Devon Technologies' freeware WordService, which puts those options in the Services menu where they can be accessed from any application. But Mellel does not provide this ability itself.

That worked perfectly. Problem solved.

Thank you.
