Details
AsValue allows you to better handle *SQLNull. Rather than having to test for a potential SQLnull, AsValue allows a variable to return a specified value.
Example
Rather than having to test as below
If ((#Variable = 123) *or (#Variable.IsSqlNull)
...
AsValue allows the following
If (#Variable.AsValue(123))
...
