Sometimes i want to change my flag and symbols in the middle of a game. Like if im norway and conquered sweden, it would be great to change my flag then. And so on, Is there any way to make a program like that?

The flags and shields are stored under the folder gfx\map in your EU2 folder. Each country has these files:
gfx\map\flags\flag_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\shield_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\silver\shieldsilver_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\small\smallshield_tag.bmp
where tag is the country tag (like NOR for Norway).
If you don't want to change country the easiest way is to: save the game, exit, replace these files with new files (with a backup of the old ones) then restart the game...
gfx\map\flags\flag_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\shield_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\silver\shieldsilver_tag.bmp
gfx\map\shields\small\smallshield_tag.bmp

Havard's suggestion is in many ways the easiest.
The only other way would be to create an entire new country, use one of the user-defined tags, and once you have met certain requirements (like owning Stockholm) you "become" that new country. This will require quite a bit of file editing.
