As the title said, is there any way to find out where a particular piece of code is called from?

I mean, you could search your HP in-game for example, and then go to 'find what accesses this address', which would end up leading you to a piece of assembly, that causes damage on your character. But if you scroll up (say, to find what causes the game to think you've been hit in the first place, for example), you usually end up just running into a dead end - a return from a previous procedure. Or maybe I'm just doing something wrong. How can I find out what assembly was run before that?

hanks.

Yep if you set a breakpoint on the ret. in the stack the caller functions address is saved there. i cant remember exactly which offset, but its there, thats how RET knows where to return to Wink

I see. But the game I want to do this with, uses GameGuard, and I thought it was semi-impossible to use the debugger with the latest versions of GameGuard?
