I suspect labelStr is nil. When are you executing this line? If
labelStr is an outlet and you are doing it in an init method, that is
too early -- labelStr has not been connected yet. Try moving this
line to awakeFromNib.

In general, when a line of code doesn't seem to be having any effect:
* Make sure the line is actually being executed, using a breakpoint or
NSLog.
* Make sure the receiver isn't nil, using the debugger or NSLog.
* If the receiver is an outlet, make sure you aren't messaging it
before the outlet has been connected.
