Won't Read Cell Names

I have made a cell with the following formula

=C2

However, instead of placing the value in C2, it is reading "=C2"
 
The most likely culprit is that you have formatted that cell as Text.
Go to the Format menu, choose Cells, and there the Number tab. In the
list, choose General (or some other format) and click OK.
