Default VLOOKUP, why #N/A

I am trying to figure why I am getting #N/A. My function is coded as:
=VLOOKUP(A28465,W9038352AY.xls!$A$1:$E$5,W9038352A Y.xls!$E$1,0).

I can actually see the contents of cell A28465 of the base ss in A1 of
W9038352AY.xls and they are both formatted as number. I have tried changeing
the format to text and general to no avail.

My intent is to put the contents of E1 in column D of the base ss whenever
col A of the base ss is equal to col A of W9038352AY.xls
