BZ #8517 is filed to request the use of single quotes in strings, but
it's an enhancement request, so it's unlikely ever to get any
attention. In the meantime, you can do (watch the wrapping)

put quote & "C:\Program Files\Visual CUT 11\Visual CUT.exe" & quote \
 && "-e" \
 && quote & "C:\Rev\FOM2\Lease Reports\All
 Leases\LeasePaymentsbyLeaseName.rpt" & quote \
 && "Parm1:2010" into sCommand
