Automatically calculate age from birthdate

Hi:

I have a textbox which I want to have filled with the contact person's age,

derived from birthdate using a formula. I have a formula, and have created a

working textbox. If I change the birthdate it fills in the textbox.

But...

I have existing birthdate data for contacts. The textbox does not appear to

respond to existing data. Is there a way to force the calculation when I

move from one contact to another (on menu using up/down arrows), or when I

open the form for a contact who has an existing birthdate?

Thanks!

Fred
 
I am making some progress. This works:

Item.UserProperties.Find("Age").Value = "Hello"

But this generates a "Type Mismatch" error message:

Item.UserProperties.Find("Age").Value =

IIf([Birthday]<>"None",DateDiff("yyyy",[Birthday],Date())-IIf(DateDiff("d",CDate(Month([Birthday])

& "/" & Day([Birthday]) & "/" & Year(Date())),Date())<0,1,0),"")

Still plugging away...

Thanks!

Fred

Hello:

I've learned that the problem is with IIF in VBScript (I thnink!).

Found this code (thanks Sue Mosher):

Public Function IIf(blnExpression, vTrueResult, vFalseResult)

If blnExpression Then

IIf = vTrueResult

Else

IIf = vFalseResult

End If

End Function

and now this expression appears to work:

Item.UserProperties.Find("Age").Value =

IIf([Birthday]<>"None",DateDiff("yyyy",[Birthday],Date())-IIf(DateDiff("d",CDate(Month([Birthday])

& "/" & Day([Birthday]) & "/" & Year(Date())),Date())<0,1,0),"")

Thanks,

Fred
