I'm not sure you're issue is related to single quotes. The only characters
that need to be escaped for the QueryParser are + - ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ?
: \ You can do that using QueryParser.Escape(string). It's possible you it
might be related to the analyzer that you're using. In my experience,
sometimes using a different analyzer to index than you use to search can
*sometimes* cause unexpected behavior like this. Since I haven't myself run
into this exact problem to the best of my knowledge, it's tough for me to
give a more specific answer without your code/test data.
Thanks,
