In VBA this is <> (Not equal to)
operator.
The result becomes true if expression1 <> expression2
The result becomes false if expression1 = expression2
in sql... we use it for "not equals"... I am guessing, its the same in VB aswell.
It is an "INEQUALITY" operator. Get a list of comparison operators in VBA
This is an Inequality operator.

Not Equal To
Before C came along and popularized !=
, languages tended to use <>
for not equal to.
At least, the various dialects of Basic did, and they predate C.
An even older and more unusual case is Fortran, which uses .NE.
, as in X .NE. Y
.
It means not equal to, as the others said..
I just wanted to say that I read that as "greater than or lesser than".
e.g.
let x = 12
if x <> 0 then
//code
In this case 'x' is greater than (that's the '>' symbol) 0.
Hope this helps. :D
