There is no API to do that, that I'm aware of.
You can do it like that or you can use a map,
something like this (untested) code

#include <map>
std::map<String, unsigned int> VirtualKeyMap;

unsigned int VirtualKey_NameToCode(String VKName)
{
    return VirtualKeyMap[VKName];
}

void Set_VirtualKeyMap()
{
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_LBUTTON" ] = 0x01;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_RBUTTON"  ] =  0x02;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_CANCEL"   ] =   0x03;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_MBUTTON" ]  = 0x04;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_XBUTTON1" ] = 0x05;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_XBUTTON2"]  =  0x06;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ] =  07;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_BACK" ] = 0x08;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_TAB" ] = 0x09;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ] =   0A;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ]  =   0B;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_CLEAR"    ]  =  0x0C;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_RETURN"   ] = 0x0D;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ] =  0E;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ] =  0F;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_SHIFT"    ] = 0x10;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_CONTROL"  ] = 0x11;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_MENU"     ] = 0x12;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_PAUSE"    ] = 0x13;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_CAPITAL"  ] = 0x14;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_KANA"     ] = 0x15;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_HANGUEL"  ] = 0x15;
    VirtualKeyMap["VK_HANGUL"   ] = 0x15;
    //VirtualKeyMap["" ] =  16;
    //All the rest
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------

__fastcall   TForm1 :: TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
        : TForm(Owner)
 {
    Set_VirtualKeyMap();
 }

void __fastcall TForm1:: Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
    ShowMessage(String(VirtualKey_NameToCode("VK_RETURN")));
    ShowMessage(String(VirtualKey_NameToCode("VK_SHIFT")));
}
