Vlookup returns an exclamation mark

"=VLOOKUP(C5,database!A1:database!B24,1)" returns "!", where "C5" is "b", and on the database sheet (named "database"), "A14" is "b" while "B14" is "c". also, using the TYPE for C5, A14, and B14 all return "2". Vlookup also returns ! when I try to use it for anything else in the database.

I can’t find this issue anywhere online. Why is it doing this?
