Default Simple array compare not working

Hello, maybe someone can see something obvious here.

I've got the following compare as part of a MATCH function, and it always
returns false. It doesn't seem to be stepping past the first row of the
column A. I am entering this as an array formula (ctrl-shift-enter). How come
it's not going past the first row?

{=('[File1.xls]SW'!A2:A100=A2)}

I get the same behavior using

{=('[File1.xls]SW'!$A:$A=A2)}

There is definately a value in column A that matches A2 of this sheet. It
works with a VLOOKUP.

Thanks,

- Pete
