Subject: Date of Birth question
> Hey guys/gals!
>
> I am currently working on database enabling the www.friendsplus.com.au web
> site for a friend using, of course, CF. At the moment it is maintained
> manually using Micro$oft FrontPage 2000 - not very efficient.
>
> What I need to do is when a member "Joins" and enters their date of birth
> (as a Eurodate formatted date DD/MM/YYYY - it's an Aussie site) to
calculate
> their age in years based on the current date (Now()) - dynamically.
>
> I nearly had it working except it calculated me as being 33 and not 32
(born
> December 4 1968).
>
> Any suggestions would be appreciated. In the meantime I'll get back into
it.

> All the best.
