In windows form, why are some text in .resx file not displayed correctly in terms of upper/lower case?

I encountered a very unusual Windows form bug and I just thought maybe some of you have an idea or have encountered this before. If so, please yell. :)

For instance (not exact text) Excerpt of .resx file (Resource)

<data name="Events.Text" xml:space="preserve">
<value>Select one or more RaceCar tracks:</value>
</data>

this will display "Select one or more Racecar tracks:" which is incorrect because it should be RaceCar instead of Racecar.

But if I add any extra character at the end, it will be fixed. 

<data name="Events.Text" xml:space="preserve">
<value>Select one or more RaceCar tracks: </value>   -> if I add space " "
</data>

this will now display as is: "Select one or more RaceCar tracks: "

Any insight to what's happening in the .resx file?

  • After a lengthy debugging, turns out, something in our code changes the value.
