Default array formulas

It is trying to get the 2nd element of the array.

What does the BLP function look like?

Sorry I totaly forgot to post the formula, here it is :

=BLP("NESN VX Equity";"BEST_BRK_PERIOD_OVERRIDE=:1FY,BEST_EPS"); 0;2)

Once I enter this formula in a cell, it becomes an array, like that :

{=BLP("NESN VX Equity";"BEST_BRK_PERIOD_OVERRIDE=:1FY,BEST_EPS"); 0;2)}

And it returns two values next to each other (eg. A1 and B1).

What I would like is only the second cell (B1) and not both ?

I've tried the worksheet function INDEX but they are still two cells
which
are used in my sheet and I only want one.

Thanks !

PS : Nice proverb
