Thanks Phill . Very helpful.
I would also need the name of the caller. Is it simple to get ?

Sub Caller
me.CalledBy()
end sub

Sub CalledBy()
Dim FullNameOfCalle rSub = ?????
msgbox(FullName OfCallerSub)
end sub

Pamela,

You can use the System.Diagnost ics.StackTrace &
System.Diagnost ics.StackFrame classes.

Dim trace As New StackTrace()
Dim caller As StackFrame = trace.GetFrame( 1)
Debug.WriteLine (caller.GetMeth od(), "caller")
