... expressions like if(65<=name[i]<=90); that is not valid C

Strictly speaking, that is valid C, though it does not do what you might expect. In fact it will always return 1 (true), since it is equivalent to if ( (65 <= name[i]) <= 90). The expression (65 <= name[i]) evaluates to either true (1) or false (0), both of which are <= 90, so the expression will always be true.

Better than using "magic numbers", or even char constants, why not useisupper(), islower(), toupper() and tolower())?
C++
#include <ctype.h>

if( islower(name[i] )
   name[i] = toupper(name[i]);
else if ( isupper(name[i]) )
   name[i] = tolower(name[i]);

That's clear and concise, I think, and has the advantage that if you need to migrate to an non ASCII environment [e.g. EBCDIC, but not UTF-X (and really, who does, these days?)], it will still work without any code changes. It will also work for locales other that C/POSIX

For the advanced reader I offer, also
C++
name[i] = isupper(name[i]) ? tolower(name[i]) : toupper(name[i])
toupper() and tolower() only transform characters that evaluate true for isupper() and islower(), respectively, so non alphabetic chars are not changed by passing through them. The ternary ?: operator should be approached with caution though, as it often makes code harder to understand, particularly for users new to C
Keep Calm and Carry On
