The best tool tends to be another pair of eyes :-)
if you don't think it is worth your time to post the code, (believe it or not people will actually look at code postings) then here is a generic answer :-(
ORA-00904 invalid column name
Cause: The column name entered is either missing or invalid.
Action: Enter a valid column name. A valid column name must begin with a letter, be less than or equal to 30 characters, and consist of only alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #. If it contains other characters, it must be enclosed in double quotation marks. It may not be a reserved word.
