Applying text attributes in Cocoa

I'm having trouble applying two text attributes to a string: a font and I want it such that the gap between lines gets compressed;not sure if I should alter LineSpacing or NSBaselineOffsetAttributeName in a NSTextStorage object.

here's my go at it:

[...]

mySongString = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[song theSongAsString]];

bodyFont = [NSFont fontWithName:@"Zapfino" size:10];
theStyle =[[NSMutableParagraphStyle alloc] init];
[theStyle setLineSpacing:0.0];

NSDictionary * attr = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:theStyle forKey:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName];

attrString = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:mySongString attributes:attr];

[theTextView setFont:bodyFont];
[theTextView setStringValue:attrString]; // warning: passing arg 1 of `setStringValue:' from incompatible pointer type

so the object I'm passing is incompatible..so what's the best way to go about this?

Michael
