Call Stack

This is part of Debugging your code.


Stack

A Stack is a data processing term that comes from a stack of dishes aka LIFO (Last In First Out).

When VBA routine calls a routine that calls a routine, the VBA code uses a Stack to keep track of where to return to.  

The Call Stack is only available while your code is paused in the debugger.
