VB source "FILE", "LINE" information

In "C" you can use __FILE__ and __LINE__ to let the precompiler insert the source filename and source linenumber in that spot in your code. Does VB have something similar ??
I want to write a generic "Error logging" function that includes this information in the error entry. On the call to the LogError function I want to include the source filename and the line number (or at maybe the current function or sub name ?).
eg.
Call LogError(__FILE__, __LINE__, some, other, parms)
I do not want to hardcode the source file name & line number. I would hate to start numbering lines or write an Add-In to do this
