IF Statement to pull numbers from a table

I am trying to follow an example of a simple IF statement which pulls numbers from a table in an adjoining spreadsheet into another table.  The precise instructions are "=IF(LeadTimeTable[@Type]="Feature";LeadTimeTable[@LeadTime];NA())".  But, instead of pulling in the content, or numbers, from the LeadTimeTable, Excel displays the text "LeadTimeTable[@LeadTime]".  I am trying to re-construct an example of a control chart using instructions from http://hakanforss.wordpress.com/2011/06/23/control-chart-how-to-create-one-in-excel-2010/ .  The example uses 28 steps to demonstrate how to build a control chart.  I am stuck on step 17.  I believe the formula entered above is to blame.  I have tried contacting the author, but have not heard back from him or her as yet.  Suggestions are welcome.

Hi,

Check to see whether the system List Separator is , or ; in Control Panel.

I could not find this feature in Excel 2010.

Correction - the list separator is a comma.

So, try to change the ";" in the formula to "," to check the issue.
