How to convert a .Net array into something Matlab can understand?

I have managed to write some .net code and compile it to a dll, and call it successfully from Matlab.
The resulting object exposes a number of properties which are all array of string/double/DateTime.
If I do the following in Matlab
z = Library1.DbData.getData(startDt, endDt);
a = cell(z.a_text_field);
Then I can see the results in a no problem.
However, if I do
c = cell(z.dates,'ConvertTypes','System.DateTime');
Then I get
Error using cell
Conversion to double from System.DateTime[] is not possible.
And if I do
d = cell(z.doubles,'ConvertTypes','all');
Then I get
Error using cell
Size inputs must be scalar.
I could hack this and make everything return a stirng, but it seems a bit ugly. How can I make doubles and datetimes work?

I have answer for the double array. I simply need to do
x = z.some_numeric_field.double;
There doesn't seem to be any equivalent for DateTime though.
Final update: for DateTime I am just returning the Matlab date number instead of a DateTime. Slighlty hacky. Better support for primitave arrays would be nice.
