You'll need to do a VK_SHIFT press event, followed by a VK_COMMA press, then a VK_COMMA release and a VK_SHIFT release (assuming QWERTY keyboard). The system will reject a VK_LESS press because that's not a valid key without a shift event.

Did you try VK_LESS, and VK_LESS in combination with SHIFT for >?

Assuming you mean java.awt.event.KeyInput, then a quick glance at the documentation suggests that KeyInput.VT_LESS and KeyInput.VT_GREATER would correspond to the < and > keys.
