Default Looking up a value based on date and time, what's wrong?

I put this function:
(INDEX('2000'!$A$9:$I$8768,(DAY(analysis2000!$A2)-1)*24+1+analysis2000!B$1,3))*0.447
in a worksheet called analysis2000.
This looks up a value in another worksheet (called 2000) based on the
date, which is stored in analysis2000!A2. I copied this out from one
working on a worksheet called 1999. It worked fine there. But for this
one, Excel 2000 returns the VALUE error on every instance. What I am
trying to do is putting a long list of hourly data (for a whole year)
into a matrix, one row for each day of the year. So 2000 has about 9000
rows, analysis2000 has 366.
The problem is in the DAY part of the function, which returns this
error. Can anyone shed some light for me?
Thanks in advance.
