Hi, collinq 

Thanks for your concern about this issue.

And I would like to share some additional solutions below.

 

Hi, imarco62 

I am glad to help you.

 

According to your description, you want to create a file with double quotes around the fields?
If I understand you correctly, then you can refer to my solution.

 

You can try to enclose the fields in double quotes directly in Power Query Editor using M language. 

As in my example below: 
 

let
    Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("XX\XX\XX.xlsx"), null, true),
    Sheet1_Sheet = Source{[Item="Sheet1",Kind="Sheet"]}[Data],
    #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Sheet1_Sheet, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"field1", Int64.Type}, {"field2", type text}, {"field3", type text}}),
    AddQuotesToColumns = Table.TransformColumnNames(#"Promoted Headers", each """" & _ & """")
in
    AddQuotesToColumns

 

Result:

 

 

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
