Well, you're not doing anything "wrong," so you can draw your own
conclusions! One solution that another user came up with is to use two
single closing quotes instead of a double one (backslash not needed).

Using MS Word's Insert - Fields- TC, I built the following entry {TC
"Robert Lee \"Pete\"" \l 2}. When I build the table I get:
Robert Lee "Pete\

Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
