I have no general method. However, you can do this: 1. On the "Options" menu, switch "Enter debug on error" on. 2. Run your agenda to hit the error. A buffer with the backtrace pops open. 3. Press e (current-buffer) RET to learn about the buffer where this happens 4. Press e pos RET to learn about the position of the offending time stamp. 5. Press `q' to leave the backtrace buffer, then switch to the buffer you learned about and find the position you just learned about. THis should be the bad timestamp.
