I have not made any awk script, I think the problem lies in passing some chars between tcl and awk. could be tcl could be gawk, could even by cygwin but that's a guess. In this case, it's either the char " or the " in followed by blank char.
As for trying escaping like you mention below, what do you suggets for the tcl script:
set awkCode { { print " "; } }
exec awk $awkCode
TIA,
