I use Forms 5.0 now, and I don't remember about 4.5, but in v 5.0 there is a Case Restriction property for List Item item type and Combo Box list style. Unfortunately it is not work.
You can use in POST-CHANGE trigger:
:<block_name>.<list_item_name> := UPPER(:<block_name>.<list_item_name>);
this will work for List Item Value not for List Element...
I hope this help.
