Been there, done that.
The :s approach doesn't cope well with comments and quoted strings. Particularly, the SQL keywords "and" and "or" are common.
Using vim's abbreviations can work well, f.ex.
:abbr select SELECT
On several projects where the coding standards called for reserved words in upper case, I've used an awk script that knew about comments and quoted strings, processing character by character with a simple state machine. As an exercise I translated it to VimL but it was slower than piping to awk, if I recall correctly.
(I hate such misrules. I've campaigned against them, to no avail, then used my script to find my code the only stuff to comply 100%. The stupid rule was too hard for its backers to keep.)
I'm sure there's vim plugins for this sort of thing.
