I managed to solve it myself.

I added the following code to the "on Error" field on the App (Select App from the Tree view on the left, then On Error from the properties on the right.)

Notify(
         Concat(Errors(ClientList), Column&": "&Message),
         NotificationType.Error
     )

It then told me what the offending column was next time the error occurred.

Hope this helps someone else in the future.
