Claude,

be careful with your second formula and as en example try these 2 dates in
a1 and b1

31 Jan 1951
01 Mar 2008
which gives
57 years, 1 months, -1 days

A1 = birth date
B1 = Today()

in C1 enter this = =DATEDIF(A1,B1,"Y")

for more detailed age try this
=DATEDIF(A1,B1,"Y")&" Years "&DATEDIF(A1,B1,"YM")&" Months
"&DATEDIF(A1,B1,"MD")&" Days"
