Default In Excel can you calculate age from two given dates?

Bob you saved my day! I was trying to figure out how to get the yrs and
months of students birhtdates for a standardized test spread sheet and your
formula was right on the money! You sved me many hours of number crunching.
I owe you a beer!

We are using Excel as a manual log of visits. We would like to screen out
anyone that is not 18 years old and were looking for a means of

calculating
the age from the current date and the date of birth. Is there a function

that
can do this?
