Default IF Statements using previous cell references

hi

I'm trying to create an if statement that allows me to bring across data
from another worksheet within the same book.

However, when i create the 'true' statement and try to add the cell
reference from the previous worksheet the statement takes the worksheet &
cell name as the answer... so

so when in worksheet 2
=IF("worksheetA'!L3="Yes","'WorksheetA'!C3'","0")

then the 'True' answer goes into the cell as

'WorksheetA!C3'
Whereas i actually want what the 'text' is in the cell in that worksheet as
the answer.

are you able to have a cell as an answer to an 'IF' statement or will that
just not work?

Hope that makes sense....
