Sorry, there's no escape character, but it's not needed, as far as I know. If you're wanting to create quotes in a string via Lingo, you can use QUOTE as in "my"&"E&"name""E&&"is Manny". If the quotes are in a string entered into a field by the user, you shouldn't need to escape them.
Have you done tests with your database to test this?
