Remarks
This getString method is specified by the getString method in the java.sql.ResultSet interface.
All columns in SQL Server can be returned as a String. This means that a String representation of all number-based and character-based types, and a hex-string representation of binary columns such as binary, varbinary, varbinary(max), image, timestamp, and uniqueidentifier, can be returned.
Location-sensitive types such as money, smallmoney, datetime, smalldatetime, float, real, decimal, and numeric will return the canonical toString() format for the underlying value of the type.
User-defined types are returned as hexadecimal String values.
