Thread Subject: Getting the name of the calling funtion

Hello,

Lets say that I am in a function fun1, and I call function fun2.

Can fun2 determine that it was called by fun1. Ideally I would like something like:

z = getcallingfunction(), which when called in fun2 would set z to the string fun1.

Thank you!
