Whenever I try to insert text from a table cell into a field I get an error. 

Instead of the field displaying my text it just shows a bunch of hashtags.

Numeral values work just fine.

Note: It works the other way around, I can insert text from fields into table cells.

 

Here's what I mean:

Does anybody know the solution to this problem?

Is that TEXT field referencing an object, document, sheet set, or something else?  Regardless, I don't believe it's possible because when you select the field and then select the table text the field only shows table information.

If you were to consider third party add-ons, DotSoft's ToolPac contains numerous field tools, including a Table > Mtext Field Extract.  Simply select a table and swipe across the cells they want to create linked mtext from.  It instantly creates all the linked fields (text or numeric) in the current layer so the user can then simply drag them to the desired locations.

 

Below is an example with (2) integers, (6) real numbers and (2) text strings created in seconds.

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately it doesn't support Autocad LT which is the software I am using.
