Good day.
Total novice, with a couple of questions.
Question 1: I have a ID number, 7401235229081. The first 6 numbers indicate the birthdate, 23 January 1974. I want to calculate age from this in the next column. There are various formulas on the net, but it seems I just cant get it to work. Any suggestions.
You can get the birthdate using this formula in B1, assuming your ID is in A1:
=DATE(LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2),MID(A1,5,2))
If you want the age in years, you can use this:
=DATEDIF(DATE(LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2),MID(A1,5,2)),TODAY(),"y")
where the cell needs to be formatted as General.
Hope this helps.
Pete
