Nope. Those are C family operators.

Try 

IntPtr = IntPtr * 2 for <<
And  IntPtr = IntPtr \ 2 for >>

But are you aware of the impact of these operators on signed integers?

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_shift

Subject: [AccessD] Left and right shift

I thought we have a >> and << operator in Access - shift left and shift right.  When I try to use it I get a compile error.

   IntPtr = IntPtr >> 2

Do we not have this operator?  I can't find it listed in an operator in help.
