[support] Form Doubt

This issue is resolved.

Hi
I found that value is retreived properly, but when I increment it by 1 it
does not work.

My code in hook_form_alter is as below.

 if($form_id == myformid)
 {
    $form_state['values']['companies'] = $form_state['values']['companies']
+ 1;
 }

Is this the way values can be incremented, or I need to follow any
particular
