Does it have to return void? If not, how about returning an NSString*? - (NSString *)convertFunctionWithValues:(NSString *)valueOne ValueTwo:(double)valueTwo ValueThree:(double)valueThree ValueFour:(double)valueFour ValueFive:(NSString *)valueFive ValueSix:(double)valueSix .... {
NSString *retVal; // calculations... retVal = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%c%c%i%i", retLet1, retLet2,retFinalCalcA,retFinalCalcB]; return retVal; } On Mon, Apr 7, 2008 at 4:59 PM, Stuart Green <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I've currently got a function of type void that works swimmingly in the > debugger.
