Cell shows only formula, no result

A

I have run into this a few times and forgot how I solved it before. I
am doing a simple vlookup in Excel 2003 and instead of giving me a
formula result the cell just retains the text of the formula. What
option or fomatting do I need to change?

Change the format of the cell to Numeric or ... Select the Cell. Hit F2 and
then Enter...
