    Example
    static void GetMyValue(SalesforceConnection myConnection)
    {
      SalesforceCommand cmd = new SalesforceCommand("SELECT * FROM AllTypes");
      cmd.Connection = myConnection;
      myConnection.Open();
      try
      {
        SalesforceDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
        reader.Read();
    
        for (short i = 0; i < reader.FieldCount; i++)
        {
          if (reader.IsDBNull(i))
            Console.WriteLine("NULL");
          else
          {
            object someValue = reader.GetValue(i);
            Console.WriteLine(someValue.ToString());
          }
        }
    
        reader.Close();
      }
      finally
      {
        myConnection.Close();
      }
    }

        Dim reader As SalesforceDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader
        reader.Read()
        For i As Short = 0 To reader.FieldCount - 1
          If reader.IsDBNull(i) Then

          End If
