Default VLOOKUP being messed up by formating? Help..


I added the example2.xls
He http://www.geocities.com/saftneger2/Example.zip

I'm trying to lookup Values of Column A in Query1 (SN's) and match them
with Values in Column A of Build list and return Column B of Build list.
(The build date)

However Excel 2000 seems to be unable to identify Query1!A4:A26
When I used the formular editor for vlookup on those values,result:
lookup_values = 42445

It should be:
lookup_values = "42445"
in order to work.

I copied some SNs from Build list to Query (displayed in Query!A2:A3)
and in this case lookup_value = "..." and it works.

Why is Excel not able to identify Query1!A4:A26? :(
