Answer 1

The short answer is no ... unless you are really really motivated.

The only way to do this would be via reflection and stack walking. You would have to get a stack frame, work out whereabouts in the calling function you where invoked from and then using the CodeDOM try to find the right part of the tree to see what the expression was.

For example, what if the invocation was ExampleFunction("a" + "b")?
