Although you can call IsDBNull to see if there are null values before calling this method, you do not have to do this.

The following example iterates through all the columns within the current row in a DataTableReader, displaying the contents of each column and the column name. Generally, if your intent is to work with all the columns within a row retrieved by a DataTableReader, consider using the GetValues method instead, because it is more efficient.
