How to increment local variable inside Razor Syntax, MVC3

Question

I am working on MVC3, i have a situation where i want to do something like this:

<Div>
   @Code
       Dim i = 1
   End Code
   ....
   some where, i want to increment i's value, expect 'i' value should be incremented by 1 for subsequent use.
  @i = @i + 1
  ..
</div>

but razor is throwing wrong syntax error message. Could someone help me how to do this properly in side razor code.

Thank you, Rey.

I don't know VB, but in C# u can use

@{i = i + 1;}

or

@{ i++; /* or i += 1; */ }

UPDATE: I think in VB must be:

@Code
    i = i + 1
End Code

test it!

UPDATE: I create a MVC3 app with VB and test this code:

@Code
    ViewData("Title") = "Index"
    Dim i = 0
End Code

<h1>@i</h1>

<h2>Index</h2>

@Code
    i = i + 1
End Code

<h1>@i</h1>

It works! post your markup, if u can.

Can u put your markup here? it seems the error is not thrown from this. I create a MVC3 app with VB and test the code, and it works!
