[RBASE-L] - RE: Calculating a persons age.

[Dan Goldberg]

Here is a sample code to determine age.
 
set var vBirthDate date 
set var vAgeDays integer
set var vAgeYears integer
 
--My Birthday
set var vBirthDate = 11/22/1968
 
--subtract birthdate from todays date
set var VageDays = (.#date - .vBirthdate)
 
--Divide days by years to get age, remove decimal part and put into
vAgeYears
set var vAgeYears = (int(.vAgeDays/365.25))

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?
