The GW-8 is able to display both uppercase and lowercase letters, but these are not distinguished internally.
For example, suppose that a Style named ROCK has been saved. If you then record a different Style, assign it the name rock and then attempt to save it, ROCK and rock will be considered identically named styles, so a screen will ask you to confirm the overwrite operation.

With the cursor located at the beginning of the name, pressing [ ] will move the cursor to ONE TOUCH.
