I am trying to export from a master project with about 8 sub-
projects. When I try and export from the master to excel, it does not
include certain text fields. Why? Any work arounds? I need the text
field (name) to use the excel sheet.

How are you exporting?

Data lives in the sub-projects, not the master. However, try expanding all
sub-projects and try again

Not all custom fields roll up to the sub-project tasks, so their data is not
available in the master.

For this and other reasons (including no risk of file corruption) I usually
create new masters every week but not linked. This copies all data into the
master and consolidates resource info. The result is much more useful for
reporting purposes and provides a weekly snapshot.
