Default @vlookup returns the formula instead of the value - why?

I am using an @vlookup to return a "Y" or an "X" value back. When I try to
change this function, instead of getting a "Y", "X" or blank cell, the
formula is what shows in my cell vs the text I want returned. When I
originally set up the fx in this spreadsheet, it was fine. It wasn't until I
needed to edit each month that I have this problem. Even it I delete the fx
and re enter, I still get the formula returnevs the value. See Below what
comes back in my cell. The Y's are correct. Not sure why the formula is
returned vs a Y, N or blank cell. Not sure if there is something I need to
turn off or on. I looked in the tools - options and did not see anything.

=VLOOKUP($B15,'Station Rep Guide'!$C$3:$k$1089,8,FALSE)
Y
Y
Y
