Symptoms
When opening an Excel file from the Search Results, the user is challenged twice for authentication; however if the second prompt is 'canceled' the document still opens.
The document is an Excel worksheet and after hitting 'cancel' on the second authentication, an error stating "File error. Some number formats may have been lost" appears, and the date formats in one of the columns in the worksheet revert to numeric values instead of dates.
