Use the TODAY() formula

So if you have a birthdate say 06/28/2008 in cell A1

In cell B1 type the formula

=A1-TODAY()

Then make sure you change cell B1s format to General

What if the date of birth is in the past?
For example if the DOB is 1/30 and today is 6/5 then it displays -127. How
do I get it to calculate how many days until 1/30 of next year?

I was referring to the MM/DD portion of the date.
In the previous example I would like it to return 238 or 239 (depending on
Leap Year), instead of -127.

I think I got it, but I don't know how to do it w/o creating column D.
=IF(D2<TODAY(),SUM(D2-(TODAY()-365)),SUM(D2-TODAY()))

Given the following:
D2=this years birthday (ex: DOB=1/30/99, then D3=1/30/08)
---------------------->=DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(A2),DAY(A2))
A2=DOB
