Calling ToString on a nullable column throws error

[lennyf]

When writing an entity query you can convert a nullable column to a string

myDbContext.Contact.Select(c => c.NullableIntColumn.ToString());

However this code using the dyanamic linq will not work if the column is nullable and throws a ParseException - "Methods on type 'Int32?' are not accessible"

myDbContext.Contact.Select("NullableIntColumn.ToString()");

Update - Seems you can replicate the ToString in LinqToEntity by doing a conversion to its non nullable type first and then calling to string myDbContext.Contact.Select("int(NullableIntColumn).ToString()");
