Hi!

Check that a row in Pharo's OpenDBX driver answers to:

- #values  it reads the value from the database and tries to convert it to
the corresponding object representation (e.g., a mysql date to a pharo date)
- #rawValues it returns a string representing the direct representation in
mysql.

So maybe if you use #rawValues you can query the database and do whatever
you want with the "unparsed" value.

Tell us if this helps you!
