Default Function returning null value instead of string value


Hi,

I have a combo box with some values in it. Now, I want to make a
function wherein I pass the value of the combo box as a string
parameter and return a specific string value corresponding to the
string parameter passed. I am able to pass the parametric value, but
the value returned is "blank" or "null" instead of the string value
that the function should be returning. Why is this happening? Below is
the code that I am using for the function and how I am passing the
value into it. Please help.


Code:
--------------------

Function convertDiv(oDiv As String) As String
Dim wDiv, oDivID As String
wDiv = oDiv
If wDiv = "A" Then
oDivID = "1"
ElseIf wDiv = "B" Then
oDivID = "2"
ElseIf wDiv = "C" Then
oDivID = "3"
ElseIf wDiv = "D" Then
oDivID = "4"
ElseIf wDiv = "E" Then
oDivID = "5"
ElseIf wDiv = "F" Then
oDivID = "6"
ElseIf wDiv = "G" Then
oDivID = "7"
End If
convertDiv = oDivID
End Sub

--------------------



Code:
--------------------

Sub init()
Dim a As String
a = convertDiv(Trim(combo1.Value))
lblType.Caption = a
End Sub

--------------------


Peace,

Shivboy
