Even though all of my options are set to upper case, when I view and print a return, it shows up as mixed case. Is this a new glitch?

Try the following steps:
The option only works on the returns, not the client letter. Be sure Screen 1 is input with ALL CAPS and I think that will fix it.
Nope doesn’t work. Been using this program for 30 years. Anywhere that gives an upper case option is marked
Just to be sure - Have you done the setup in Options? https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/lacerte-tax-discussions/discussion/how-do-i-print-return-in-...

Same issue, for some reason 2020 is not overriding the all caps. Options set to upper case and each return has upper case checks, returns still print in lower case
I am having this same issue which started happening in 2019 Lacerte. Primary/Master options are set to force upper case as are my user options and even if I change the miscellaneous options for the client file it doesn't make a difference. The only fix is to go out of the return and close the program to reopen and once reoppened it will work only to at some point start acting screwy again.
I spoke to someone who wanted me to delete and recreate my options but it didn't make a difference.
This is incredibly frustrating!
The problem occurs after you E-File anything. The returns will then not show upper case and as stated, you must go out of Lacerte completely and then re-enter. This started for us in the 2019 software maybe around October 15th. I was hoping the 2020 software would be fixed for this, but nope!
I thought you might want to know when it occurs so you can be aware.
I started to sense a pattern to this and thought that was the problem, and it would explain why my employee who doesn't e-file doesn't experience the problem.
Have you submitted this specific info to support? I'll do the same.
see the reply below regarding it happening after efiling. Let's all submit a case to support/contact support or your account rep. Incredibly frustrating and a waste of time!
See comment below, let's submit cases about this happening.
my partners have done this I think because they never knew you could force all caps. It just looks terrible between the letter, invoice, IPM, Smartvault etc. This hadn't been a problem up until 2019 Lacerte and now it's reoccuring. Ugh.
I spent about two hours on the phone with support last fall and I already knew what the problem was. The created a ticket for the 2019, but when I reached back out, they didn't plan to make any current changes due to the filing deadline. I have not reached out to them yet this year. Too busy to be on the phone for hours.
Hi there,
Thanks for brining this to our attention. I will look into this and see if I can get any information relayed back to you.

This would be amazing, thanks. I'm currently wasting 15+ mins a day closing and reopening my program because it reverts to mixed case every time I efile or it receives an efile acknowledgement.
Try the following steps:
I don't see any .ini files. I have a setup, tax.elf, then plain tax. Thanks
That's ok. Just locate the file called w20tx and rename it.
It doesn't work. Same problem after efiling goes to lower case. You raise the price 5% every year. Fix the bugs every year.
According to this latest post about most recent update, the issue should be solved. Please contact the originator of that post if it is not.
