Someone must have epxerienced this problem before. The number is the lastlogon

The number can be a misinterpreted representation of the Unix Epoch time.
Remember the EPOCH times for Unix and Windows are different.
Try this, read the comments I have included for you:

Problem: LDAP date is returned as NANOSECONDS and if you try to write a
function to parse it CFMX returns an error saying the number is too big to fit
in integer

because it's the beginning of the last 400-year cycle by which leap-years are
calculated in the Gregorian calendar, which was followed by a new 400-year
cycle
beginning with 2001.
The number can be a misinterpreted representation of the Unix Epoch time.
(The number of seconds passed since January 1 1970 00:00:00).

Hi,
How do I turn this number 127937470871482500 into date? When I tried
