    bebo021999 is not possible, but we use only one format
    1. day month year or
    2. month day year,

    if we use number 2 month day year, then is if possible to calculate DOB ?

    Re: how to calculate DOB if date format is differ

    Would suggest two options:

    1) use helper in C2 to convert D2 to properly date:
    =IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0))

    2) Replace D2 with (1) (use Ctrl-H) which I did in column F
    =IF(DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"y")=0,"",DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"y")&" Years, ")& IF(DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"ym")=0,"",DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"ym")&" Months, ")& IF(DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"md")=0,"",DATEDIF(IFERROR(D2+0,DATE(RIGHT(D2,4)+0,LEFT(D2,2)+0,MID(D2,4,2)+0)), E2,"md")&" Days")
