Upgrade issue : Constructor call is valid only as the first statement

I am upgrading VB6 to VB.Net

here is the code giving me the error

Code:

---

Public Sub oCustomTask2_Trans_Sub1(ByVal oCustomTask2 As Object)

Dim oTransformation As DTS.Transformation2

oTransformation = oCustomTask2.Transformations.New("DTS.DataPumpTransformCopy")

---

Error 168 Constructor call is valid only as the first statement in an instance constructor.

whats the meaning of that and how can i resolve that?

here is the upgrade warning given by Upgrade vizard


'UPGRADE_WARNING: Couldn't resolve default property of object oCustomTask2.Transformations. Click for more: 'ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/dv_commoner/local/redirect.htm?keyword="6A50421D-15FE-4896-8A1B-2EC21E9037B2"'

just a thought:

usually when instantiating objects, it would be like

Code:

---

Dim oTransformation As DTS.Transformation2
oTransformation = New DTS.Transformation2

---

or

Code:

---

Dim oTransformation As New DTS.Transformation2
