is this the expected behavior of as.character ?

resultset is a data.frame from a sqlQuery() using RODBC

> a = as.character(as.vector(resultset[1]))
> a
[1] "c(-1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)"

I would expect the statement above to return similar to the result below, am
I missing something?

> as.character(c(-1,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9))
 [1] "-1" "1"  "2"  "3"  "4"  "5"  "6"  "7"  "8"  "9"
