Invalid postback exception

ASP.NET

Hi all,

I have come across this exception and I am a bit stuck with it. All's I know is that it something to do with a button on postback but I have no idea what.

If someone could shed some light on this for me before my desktop goes out the window I would appreciate it!

Thanks.

Server Error in '/' Application.
