[Typo3-dev] exec_UPDATEquery question.

I have a problem using exec_UPDATEquery with a specific update.

In theory I want to do something like this:
UPDATE persondata SET age=age+1;
Also described here:
http://www.mysqlfreaks.com/mysql/manual_Reference.html#UPDATE

But when using exec_UPDATEquery it seems like the only way is to supply data
from PHP, but not manipulating data in the table itself (only overwriting).
F.x. if I supply a dataset like this array("age"=>"age+1") I think it tries
to put in the string age+1 instead of adding 1 to the value of age.
Am I correct in this?

Best Regards to ya all,
Stig
