Default vLookup returns formula and not result

Excellent. Work perfect. One more Niek, to keep the formula static besides
the
lookup value:

=VLOOKUP(C2,Sheet1!A2:D326,1,FALSE)

The cell was formatted as Text when you entered the function.
Just re-formatting is not enough; format as number or General AND re-enter
the formula (F2, ENTER)

The formula returns a result in the wizard but will not display it on the
worksheet? No luck with the Show Formula button.
