Hi Basta,

The full code ...

Range A1:B4 contains

JP 24/02/1956
Basta 19/09/1980
Jacob 21/08/2000
Sam 15/10/1950


Sub Age()
Dim intAge As Integer
Dim rngDOB As Range
Dim intCount As Integer
Dim rngCell As Range
Set rngDOB = Range(Cells(1, 2), Cells(1, 2).End(xlDown))

For Each rngCell In rngDOB
rngCell.Offset(0, 2) = DateDiff("yyyy", rngCell, Date)
If Month(rngCell) < Month(Date) Then
rngCell.Offset(0, 1) = DateDiff("yyyy", rngCell, Date)
ElseIf Month(rngCell) Month(Date) Then
rngCell.Offset(0, 1) = DateDiff("yyyy", rngCell, Date) - 1
Else
If Day(Date) < Day(rngCell) Then
rngCell.Offset(0, 1) = DateDiff("yyyy", rngCell, Date) - 1
Else
rngCell.Offset(0, 1) = DateDiff("yyyy", rngCell, Date)
End If
End If
Next rngCell
End Sub

Gives:

JP 24/02/1956 53 53
Basta 19/09/1980 28 29
Jacob 21/08/2000 8 9
Sam 15/10/1950 58 59


I'm using Date as second date but yoy can replace it by a cell containing a
date.

Wkr,

JP

Hi Basta,

I used dateserial to make a quick test, you can skip that function and
replace it by range("xy"), range("zz") is these contains dates.
It should be something like:

DateDiff("yyyy", ActiveCell, Range("c2))

See also my second mail on this. We where all a bit to fast not taking the
birthday in account.
As you remarked yourself, the age is increasing on the birthday, not
somewhere in the year.

Wkr,

JP

JP,

I changed your suggestion to the part of the dates (see below). But I get
an
error telling me that the argument is not optional;

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1) = DateDiff("yyyy",
DateSerial(ActiveCell.Offset(0,
0).Value), DateSerial(Range("c2").Value))

Regards,

basta

Hi,

Try ...

datediff("yyyy",dateserial(1987,2,15),dateserial(2 000,2,15)) = 13

You have to replace dateserial functions by the cell values.

Wkr,

JP

Hi,

I have a list of employees in column A2 through to column A*. In
Column B2
through to Column B is their corresponding d.o.b. I have a code (used
from
other thread in this community) to retrieve age in years. This works
fine,
except for years leading upto a bissextile year. What happens is when
I
have
d.o.b. 15-2-1988 and age per is 15-2-2000 the result is 12 (which is
correct). But when d.o.b. is 15-2-1987 and age per is 15-2-2000 the
result
is
also 12 (which should be 13). How can I solve this problem?!

The code is

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1) = Int(DateDiff("d", ActiveCell.Offset(0,
0).Value,
Range("c2").Value) / 365.25)

Regards
