Apart from other suggestions on using a motion command followed by 'U'
to make upper case, you might want to define abbreviations only for
fortran keywords.

like (I don't know what are the keywords in fortran):
:iabbr function FUNCTION

That way, you do not have to bother about case at all, vim will
correct it for you. Having a look at the fortran syntax file might
help in getting a good list of keywords.
