Is there an issue with Int64 in Crystal Reports?

I am currently designing a Demographic Information Report that is grouped by Market, Branch, Location, and Control where the only fields in the Details section for now are:  Control.Name(System.String), Control.ControlId(System.Int64), Control.MachineSn(System.String), and Control.MachineModel(System.String).

When the other details for each control in a location are displayed, the information maps correctly to each control's record.  However, in the case of Control.ControlID (the primary key), only a subset of the ControlIds are used and are duplicated for other controls.  Since this is only happening to the Int64 field, I was wondering if that was the issue.

The report's data is coming from a strongly typed dataset with, e.g., Market, Branch, Location, and Control tables whose rows are populated from object property values within the solution.

Does anyone know if there is an Int64 issue or why some fields map correctly and others, within the same record, do not

This is based on Crystal Reports as embedded in .NET 2005.
