Default Linking text Data between 2 workbooks

I am trying to retrieve data from one workbook to automatically update into a
second workbook. I have tried to use = in the destination cell and then
select the source cell but I get a !VALUE error. Both cells are text data;
they are words written out just like I am writing here, and both the source
and destination cells are merged cells. I have done this same procedure with
numbers and it works fine, but it does not seem to work for text. Any
thoughts/ help??
