Default vlookup problem

Is this in a range lookup? Is column b sorted? If you add a ,0 at the end, it
will be an exact match lookup...

I have the following formula

=VLOOKUP($A7,'Power List'!$B$2:$DP$441,25)

Column B in the table array has a formula which results in either 0 or a
unique number. Of course, this unique value corresponds to the desired
lookup value in column A.

The column index (in this case 25) has either text or numeric values.

The result I am receiving is not even close to what is expected. Is there a
limit on the size of a table array, or the column index? I have used vlookup
countless times in smaller tables that work, so I'm confused as to why it's
not working now.
