Default Vlookup Function Arguments are correct but nothing in cell


I have a VLOOKUP function in my excel worksheet. I built it using the
wizard. When I look at the function argument wizard, the function result
value at the bottom is correct. However, in my cell it simply returns the
function equation and not the value. I even hit F9 and nothing happened.

Since the wizard appears to be returing the right value, how do I get the
cell to execute the function?

Try Ctrl and the key next to the figure 1 on the top row. This toggles
between showing formula and showing values.

It is possible that you accidentally hit CTRL+ ` (the key just to the
left of the 1). If you hit that combination again, it should turn off
the Formula View.

I apologize to all for the multiple posts. I was having "Can not find
