If on 9I, access the db using the new Enterprise Manager Console, go to schema, pick the user name, and locate the view in the tree.
In the right pane you will see the view's code, and if you press compile the text will change colour at the point the error occurs. (It may already be colour coded for you when you click on the view name, not sure).
