My guess is that you want the variable _names_ to be lower case.
. rename *, lower
See -help rename- or http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?rename_groups

P.S. The list is called Statalist, not Stat List.
P.P.S. If you are not using Stata 12, you should have said so, but
-renvars- from SJ will do this also.
P.P.P.S. Please change the title when you change the subject.
