+using System;
+
+public class TestDBNullTypeCode
+{
+    public static void Main (string[] args)
+    {
+	Type type = DBNull.Value.GetType ();
+	TypeCode typeCode = Type.GetTypeCode (type);
+	Console.WriteLine ("DBNull Type: {0}", type);
+	Console.WriteLine ("DBNull TypeCode: {0}", typeCode);
+    }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+
+DBNull Type: System.DBNull
+DBNull TypeCode: Object
+
