HELP!!!!

I have a 40 page .doc story document that is all caps. I wish to
change it into regular type print, small letters.

However, it's easy to use the format change in Word, but how do I
change all the letters that should be capitalized back into caps?
Letters like I, or proper nouns, or even the first word of every
sentence.

Don't tell me to manually change everyone. There must be some easy
way to go back and forth between all caps and regular print.

What is it?

Choose Format / Change case / Sentence case. Fix the rest manually by
selecting one proper name and changing it to title case, then select each
other proper name in turn and use Ctrl+Y. If the same names appear
repeatedly, use Edit / Replace with the Match Case option ticked.
