This works fine for me. What is your locale? If you are using a decimal
comma rather than a decimal point (period), then your locale likely uses
the semicolon as an argument separator and it should be:
=INTERPOLATION(A1:A3;B1:B3;A4)

If you use insert->formula to create teh expression then the correct
argument separator will be used automatically.
