SYMPTOMS
When the date format is set to Bulgarian in Microsoft Windows XP, the user interfaces of some programs display the first letter of the month or of the day in uppercase. You expect these letters to be lowercase.

For example, you experience the following symptoms:
 * In the Regional and Language Options Control Panel item, the first letter of the month in the Long date box is uppercase.
 * In a Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 e-mail message, the first letter of the day on which the message was sent is uppercase.

This problem occurs after you set the Standards and formats option to Bulgarian in the Regional and Language Options Control Panel item.
