Did you remove this from your script?

Date(Date#([Net due date - Net due date Level 01 (Text)], 'DD.MM.YYYY'), 'DD-MM-YYYY') as [Date],

I have followed the instructions on that link (generate log file). I was told that the log file will be in the same folder/ocation where the qvw file is but I didn't see anything there. More clues please

sunny_talwar

Did you reload the application after you enabled the log file?
