Default Zeros displaying in cell when using = sign

I was moving along very well gathering information form several other
worksheets in my workbook by using the = sign to display text from the
worksheets into a summary worksheet. All of a sudden I was see zeros (0)
instead of the text I anticipated seeing.

My cells are formatted the same (General), can someone possibly assist me on
this?

Since you are seeing zero rather than an error, it is likely that the
destination links got scrambled. Verify the addresses.
