How curious. No idea what's going on there, sorry. Try using open
process and writing the data to it directly, rather than messing about
with shell escaping!
Back the first question: how do we replace double quotes in a field or
variable?
put format ("\"") into tEscapedQuote
replace quote with tEscapedQuote
replace quote with backslash & quote in tContainer
