Default vlookup formula not copying

I manually put the vlookup formula into one row of my worksheet. It's
working fine. When I try to drag the formula down to the other rows,
it copies everything except the range lookup. It just puts #ref where
the range should be. That has never happened to me before. Is there
something I'm doing wrong? I'm using Excel 2007. Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks, Daryl

=VLOOKUP(B8,'Vdr#'!#REF!,2,FALSE) This is what happens the formula
becomes when I drag it down to lower cells.

Yes, it will return #REF! as =VLOOKUP(B6,'Vdr#'!1:1048576,2,FALSE)
copied down one row becomes =VLOOKUP(B6,'Vdr#'!2:1048577,2,FALSE) 1048577
is a non-existant row
Using 1:1048576 tells Excel you are using every row in the spreadsheet and
every column, thus 1048576 rows * 16,384 columns = 17,179,869,184 cells
Just how big is your lookup table?
