text() will attempt to do a recursive walk of the sub-tree,
and assemble only the text portion. text() applied to
your <row> element should produce something like:
601133922 US Dollar 3 601133902 null Category Currently List
text() applied to a <value> tag should get the text within it,
but since you have a fairly flat hierarchy, getTextTrim() might
also be a good solution for you, since you don't need the semantics
of recursion.
columnNode.getTextTrim() would produce 601133922 for the first
<value> child of <row>.
Does that help at all?
