Dear Colleagues, I did not find a solution for a simple problem: Create a new custom column whose only content should be the name of an existing column in that Table. Many thanks! Viorel...

OK in that case your custom column's formula should be
= List.First(Table.ColumnNames(#"Insert Previous Step Here"))
...for whatever the previous step was. I'm going to guess it's #"Renamed Columns" or #"Changed Type" or something like that.
