Can I suggest something like Set v age to ((jdate(.#date))-(jdate(.vbirthday))) This returns the age in YYDDD format so that you know how many years and days old the person is.

In the absence of a DATEDIFF function, is there a function in RBase 6.5++ that will allow me to calculate an employee's age from their date of birth and .#DATE, or do I need to code this up? Damon J.
