Default #N/A - "Value not available"

Niek - Thanks for replying. The formula is:
=HLOOKUP($D44,$J$54:$N$64,F6+1,FALSE)

The input values in the table a 7.5% for the horizontal value, which is
an investment or capitalization rate, and 5 for the vertical value, which is
5 years. The table cycles the investment rate and time period through an
investment formula. The values in the table seem to be correct, and they
change when I change the input variables in the table. The HLOOKUP formula
just does not seem to recognize them as values. The table is listed below:

7.00% 7.25% 7.50% 7.75% 8.00%
1 $141.04 $136.18 $131.64 $127.39 $123.41
2 $176.95 $170.85 $165.15 $159.82 $154.83
3 $184.56 $178.20 $172.26 $166.70 $161.49
4 $191.55 $184.95 $178.78 $173.02 $167.61
5 $194.41 $187.70 $181.45 $175.59 $170.11
6 $203.93 $196.90 $190.34 $184.20 $178.44
7 $209.93 $202.69 $195.94 $189.61 $183.69
8 $219.27 $211.70 $204.65 $198.05 $191.86
9 $225.80 $218.01 $210.74 $203.94 $197.57
10 $232.86 $224.83 $217.33 $210.32 $203.75

This spreadsheet was originally in Excel 2003 and I converted it to Excel
2007. Could that have anything to do with it? I am having what seems to be
the same problem in another worksheet in this same workbook. I created this
workbook by doing a "Save As" of another Workbook. Since the problem seems
to be in more than just one place, I wonder if it might have to do with the
"Save As"?.

Thank you very much, I would appreciate any help.

Terry McCoy.
