HI Friends,
I have a large project in which there are thousand of files. Is there a way I can know the sequencing of files given I have information about base file. Thanks.

By sequence the order in which they are executing. Well I got one using dbstop and dbstack. But it tells me execution to a particular function. Is there a way I can get a sequence of execution from beginning to ending.

doc mfilename
You could place that in all your .m files and see which ones get called. You could also look at
doc dbstack
However I still believe that placing breakpoints and going line by line is the best way to understand your code, even if it takes time.

You could remove all the semicolons ";" from your scripts, in which case the result of every line will be printed into the command window.

Not possible Jonathan. It is a large project. It will take me hours and the execution is so fast that I will probably miss the line. I need something more automated.
