You have to force Crystal to use the quotes.  Unfortunately, this looks bad if you have to also be able to display the report.  If you are just directly exporting to CSV without displaying the report, it's tedious to set up but not difficult.

All you have to do is put each of the the string fields into its own text box with a quote before and after so that it looks like this in the definition: "{table.stringfield}"
