Default Text formated cells with numbers

Hi All,

I'm trying to do a vlookup from one worksheet to another. The one sheet is
an export from an Access database & the lookup column is numbers but the
Access field is text. That was done for a possible eventuality in the
database.

My problem is that unless I add the label ' into the cell the lookup doesn't
work. How do I get around that?

Cheers
Hugh
