Help converting a bigint to a DateTime in Crystal Reports 2008

Question

The data in a table contains a bigint which needs to be displayed in DateTime in the Crystal Reports.  Can someone please describe what I would need to do within the Formula to make this happen?
thank you.

Answer 1

I need to figure out the same thing:  How do I get this into a Crystal Reports Function and call it?
I have this in SQL and need to run it in Crystal Reports Language as a function
Create Function dbo.GetTimeFromTicks(@Ticks BIGINT)
Returns DateTime
As
Begin
Declare @Days BIGINT
Declare @DaysBefore1753 BIGINT
Declare @TimeTicks BIGINT
Declare @Seconds BIGINT
Set @Days = @Ticks/Convert(BIGINT, 8640000000000)
Set @DaysBefore1753 = Convert(BIGINT, 639905)
Set @TimeTicks = @Ticks % Convert(BIGINT, 864000000000)
Set @Seconds = @TimeTicks/Convert(BIGINT, 10000000)
Return DateAdd(s, @Seconds, DateAdd(d, @Days - @DaysBefore1753, Convert(DateTime, '1/1/1753')))
End
thanks,
Mike
