Default Having some problems linking an array across excel files

Basically I'm trying to make a search function from one file to another and
if there's a match (which there'll only ever be one) I want to pull data from
a cell into this sheet. It's not working though and I'm about out of ideas at
this point. I have something similar working within the file, but can't get
this link working.

Anyway, here's the formula I'm trying to work out:
{=IF('[ITC Student Database v1.xls]Formulas'!$A$8:$A$55=$B$1,'[ITC Student
Database v1.xls]Formulas'!$C$8:$C$55,"0")}

A8:A55 is a date search to match with B1's request. If it matches it's
suppose to pull the corresponding info in C8:C55 and if not, 0 is displayed.

I.E.: There's a date match in A20, so then the data in C20 gets pulled to
the cell.

I keep getting falses everywhere, but when I try it within the file it works
no problem.

Thanks in advance for the help,

Sage
