It turns out that CTRL+SHIFT+A does what I need. A pity that it's apparently stopped being user-settable, but at least a shortuct exists. (I still haven't found where this is documented, but the operation is listed and a shortcut shown if you right-click highlighted text in the editor. I guess this is supposed to be obvious, but it wasn't to me.)
Keyboard shortcut for change to upper case in editor

In R2021a I have a keyboard shortcut which changes selected text to upper case in the editor. In R2022a the action "Change to upper case" no longer appears in the list of actions found under Home > Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts. Is there an alternative way to set up such a shortcut now?

When you installed the new version it should have transferred over all your shortcuts. It did for me. It it's not there in the quick launch toolbar in the upper right then you'll just have to recreate the shortcut.

You might try asking Yair Altman if there is a way to get the highlighted text in the editor window:
Maybe something like matlab.desktop.editor.somethingOrOther

Do this in both versions of your programs
>> dir(prefdir)
Do you see shortcuts.xml in one but not the other? If so, copy it over.

Well I guess then you're just out of luck. Maybe a call to tech support might help.
