Returning a value from a function

Hi,

I've currently got a function of type void that works swimmingly in the debugger. I now need to populate a text field with the value of the generated string within the function. The function is declared along the lines:

- (void)convertFunctionWithValues:(NSString *)valueOne ValueTwo: (double)valueTwo ValueThree:(double)valueThree ValueFour: (double)valueFour ValueFive:(NSString *)valueFive ValueSix: (double)valueSix ValueSeven:(double)valueSeven ValueEight: (double)valueEight Precision:(int)precision;
{
// Declarations here
NSString *retVal = @"";


// Calculations go here...
// Lots of them...

// We've got the result, now we want to return it
retVal = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%c%c%i%i", retLet1, retLet2,retFinalCalcA,retFinalCalcB];


}

How do I now return this string value? The initialisation and calling is done via:

convertedValue = [[convertValues alloc] init];
valToBeDisplayed = [convertedValue convertFunctionWithValues:valueOne ValueTwo:valueTwo ValueThree:valueThree ValueFour:valueFour ValueFive:valueFive ValueSix:valueSix ValueSeven:valueSeven ValueEight:valueEight Precision:precision];
// Display returned value
self.valDisplayField.text = valToBeDisplayed;
[convertedValue release];


Any ideas appreciated.

Thanks,

Stu
