Hi Im using excel 2010

In the name manager i have a range using this formula =INDEX('Picture Lookup'!$Z$2:$Z$3,MATCH('Picture Lookup'!$I$2,'Picture Lookup'!$Y$2:$Y$3,0))

its not working correctely im using another formula in $I$2 on my sheet to return the value of either a 0 or 1

If i type the 0 or 1 in cell $I$2 it works just fine, but not with the formula (=RIGHT(B2,1) which is returning the correct values of 0 or 1

Any ideas how to resolve
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Try
Code:
(=RIGHT(B2,1)+0

Your formula is returning text the +0 will turn it into a number.
