Default Vlookup Error Message - Excel 2003

I have two vlookup functions in one spreadsheet linking data from two other
spreadsheets. I have 23K rows and I received an error of "Excel cannot
complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other
applications." My IT department is saying that I should query data in a table
(access) rather than storing data of 20K + rows using the Vlookup in excel.
Shouldn't excel be able to handle 600K rows of data using the Vlookup
function?
