problem passing value

void CalcPortGrossRe t(Funds tf[],int fsize,PortFolio tp,int cmonth)
{
int i=0;
float totgrossdlrval= 0;
char converter[10];
while(i<fsize){
tf[i].enddlrval=(tf[i].dlrval*(tf[i].ret[cmonth]/100.0)+tf[i].dlrval);
totgrossdlrval+ =tf[i].enddlrval;
i++;
}
tp.grossenddlrv al=totgrossdlrv al;
tp.ret[cmonth]=(tp.grossenddl rval-tp.grossdlrval)/tp.grossdlrval;
sprintf(convert er,"%.5f",tp.re t[cmonth]);
MessageBox(NULL ,"Monthly return for portfolio is "
+ (CString)conver ter,"C++ Debugger",NULL) ;

}

after CalcPortGrossRe t is called with
CalcPortGrossRe t(thefunds,3,th eport,im);
and returns,
theport.grossen ddlrval has garbage in it.

While in function tp.grossenddlrv al is correct.
tp.grossenddlrv al is a float.
theport is defined in the calling function.
whats happening?

thanks
