Default How to assign database value to a variable

I created a custom form that has 3 combo boxes pulling values from a SQL
database - the 2nd and 3rd combo boxes are filtered based on previous
selections. My problem is that I need the text value of the combo box so I
can put that selected value in the subject of the message. In the code below
I pass in the selected value of the combo box and try to get the Type name so
I can put that in the subject line (instead of the typeid) but when I try to
assign the result to a variable I get nothing - any suggestions are greatly
appreciated.

Sub FindTypeName(TypeID)
Dim rstProds
Dim strSQL
Dim lblType
On Error Resume Next
If TypeID "" Then
Set rstProds = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
strSQL = "SELECT [TYPE] " & _
"from TASKTYPE " & _
"WHERE [TYPEID] =" & TypeID & " " & _
"ORDER BY [TYPE];"
rstProds.Open strSQL, m_adoNW, _
adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly
If rstProds.State = adStateOpen Then
lblType = rstProds.GetRows
rstProds.Close
End If
End If
Set rstProds = Nothing
End Sub
