Is there anything in Visual Basic equal with its behaviour or functionality to C++ #define ???
If so what is it and how do I use it. same as in C++ ??

#define WM_MYMSG 0x30




is


public Conts WM_MYMSG = &H30




Is this what you mean?

I mean for example:

#define _VB_APPLICATION_

...

#ifdef _VB_APPLICATION_
...
#else
...
#endif

I mean defining flags for the compiler. and not just defining some constant object.

Absolutely - use:

#IF VB_APPLICATION = 1 then

#else

#End IF




And then set the compiler option in the "Conditional compiler options" text box on the "Make" tab on the project properties screen.
