none of the suggestions seems to work so far.

c:\Users\xah\Documents\vrici\cabdei>find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo \
{} \;
find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo \{} \;
find: unknown predicate `-exce'

c:\Users\xah\Documents\vrici\cabdei>find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo \
{\} \;
find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo \{\} \;
find: unknown predicate `-exce'

c:\Users\xah\Documents\vrici\cabdei>find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo {}
';'
find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo {} ';'
find: unknown predicate `-exce'

c:\Users\xah\Documents\vrici\cabdei>find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo
'{}' ';'
find . -name "*sch*" -exce echo '{}' ';'
find: unknown predicate `-exce'

this appears to be a bug?
