digging deeper to work directly with YearsBetween and MonthsBetween shows that they seem to be missing the usual "+0.5" generally used to ensure that rounding is properly handled...
You misunderstood these functions. There is no rounding necessary. The routines are correct. Only FULL years/months/day must be counted. See the documentation in e.g. http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/dateutils/yearsbetween.html If you want partial years counted, you need the *Span functions. http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/dateutils/yearspan.html Michael. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
