Question : Field information not showing up from Active Directory Data Source

I have created a report that connects to our Active Directory database.  One of the fields that I want to report on (PwdLastSet) is not showing up on the report even though I know there is data.   Here is an example of what is showing up in Active Directory for this field:

pwdLastSet: 127298886538437500

Crystal Reports shows the fields type as a String[65534] even though the field only contains numbers.  Crystal might consider it to be a string since the number is so large.  Does anyone know how I can get this data to show up in a report?

Thanks

Answer : Field information not showing up from Active Directory Data Source

Can you cast it as a string and then manipulate it after it's been selected - maybe take a substr to get the leftmost x characters and then convert that to a number?  

This is hideous - I'm glad I've never cared about this field!
