I don't know if I understood your intention correctly, but maybe this ist 
what you are looking for:

*First switch of case sensitive searching!*

Search pattern:

(w)(ord)


Replacement pattern:

\u\1\L\2


With this, every *word *|*Word *|*WORD* turns into *Word.*


Use the "Pattern Playground" to play around with it.

Hope it helps.

Cheers!
Ulrich
