We're at a bit of a disadvantage in this case, not being able to see your data. In order to reconstruct your situation, I had to use a text editor and create a bad field. I was then able to find it using this code:
<$vars quote='"'> <$list filter="[all[tiddlers]]" variable="title"> <$list filter="[<title>fields[]regexp<quote>limit[1]]" > Bad? : <<currentTiddler>><<title>> <br/> </$list> </$list> </$vars> This should find any standard tiddler with a field name contain a quote. The complication is that your actual field might not contain a quote symbol -- it might contain the html version of quote: " So if the first search doesn't find anything, try changing variable "quotes" to "&" Good luck!
