How to Step back to caller in break mode


When we break execution the compiler is very smart to highlight all
the functions
which have been called.

Several times I have though that if I am for instance on

Sub Anything()

and this is highlighted, I would like step back to the code where
there is the last call to this sub.
What I do is an annoying manual search the other highlighed line where
this Sub is called.

I never figured out if there is some way (menu or function key) to
step back, this avoiding the manual search.

Anyone knows about that? If there isn't such a feature I think it
would be quite useful for debugging...

Are you looking for the Call Stack? I'm not sure but...
When in debug mode, you should see a window titled Call Stack. This
will show the order of function calls to the breakpoint.
double-clicking on a function name in this window will jump you to that
line in the code view.

Yes!! thanks, that would do it (I was missing this one).

(It would probably be useful also to have a new context menu item or
key to step back from
the selected line)

Thanks !
