//form: years ( date1 ; date2 ) If(not IsEmpty(date1) and not IsEmpty(date2); Abs ((GetAsDate(date2) - GetAsDate ( date1)))/365.25;"") Click to copy

Calculates the years between any two dates, like birthday and current date for getting the age of a person. But does it correctly, taking into consideration leap year, etc. Others I have seen have not been correct.
