ShellCommandTextReturn without datatype?

Using ShellCommandTextReturn in a custom inventory field returns the datatype at the end of the data. For example:

ShellCommandTextReturn(c:\windows\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe "invoke-command -ScriptBlock {(get-service webclient).Status -like 'Stopped'} -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue" 2> nul)

Returns:

14) Web Service Disabled:True
[string]


This is problematic when searching devices by the custom inventory field because I can't use the = operator, and it clutters the inventory view. Is there any way to return the text without the datatype?
