Age in years only

J

Jamie

I need a formula that will just return age in years from a given birthdate. I
have tried using =DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"y") but if I do not insert a birthdate
then the formula returns 106

A blank cell is treated as 1/1/1900 which is 106 years ago.

If you want a blank returned, you could do something like
=IF(ISBLANK(A1),"",DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"y"))

Hi Jamie,

This would also work

=IF(A1="","",YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR(A1))
