Hi,

This should do it:

-------------------------------------------

#+MACRO: test src_emacs-lisp[:results raw]{(upcase "$1")}

* Hello World

{{{test(test phrase)}}}


-------------------------------------------


If you only want HTML output, you could also use CSS styling.


-------------------------------------------

Another @<span style="text-transform: uppercase">test phrase@</span> 
uppercased with CSS.

-------------------------------------------

Yours,
Christian
