hey guys i am a newbie in this world... can any one tell me how to make the ports of 8051 as input ports in Mikroc for 8051...?

Hello,

Those chips don't have register that determinate input/output.
So you don't need to declare which port is input.
Just read their registers.

But you can say this: if you write a zero to a portbit: it cannot be an input. Write ones to Portbits, you need as inputs.
