Formula Field From Picklist Field Type

I want a formula field on opportunity that defaults to the value of a field on the Account. Usually it would be easy to set the formala to Account.FieldName.

Problem is it errors because Account.FieldName is a picklist field type. How would I set the forumula so this will work?
