Exception occurred calling method NotesDatabase.getDocumentByUNID(null) null

I don't understand why I'm getting the above mentioned error with following code :

value1 = sessionScope.get("selectedPicture");
if (value1 != "empty"){
    var db:NotesDatabase = session.getDatabase(database.getServer(), "product\\picture.nsf");
    if (db != null) {
        var IDtoChange = toString("7D59468E241AC271C1257D5000417E46") ;
        if (IDtoChange = null){
           return
        }
        try {
             doc = db.getDocumentByUNID(IDtoChange);
             doc.replaceItemValue( 'picWeb', "true" );
             doc.save( true, false );
             sessionScope.put("selectedUnid","");
        } catch(e) {
             sessionScope.put("error",(e.toString()));
             context.redirectToPage("errorPage.xsp");
       }
   }
}

When I replace the line doc = db.getDocumentByUNID(IDtoChange); with doc = db.getDocumentByUNID("7D59468E241AC271C1257D5000417E46"); everything works fine

What is wrong ? (in my real code the id isn't hard coded of course)

Should line six be if (IDtoChange == null){ instead of if (IDtoChange = null){. The single = looks to be assigning the value instead of comparing which is ==
