    Hello,

    maybe

    =IF(DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(C3),DAY(C3))<TODAY(),YEAR(TODAY())+1-YEAR(C3),YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR(C3))

    Depending on how you want to handle the situation when today = the birth day, then you may want to change the first < to <=

    @abousetta, if my next birthday is next month, your first formula makes me one year older than I am and the second formula makes me one year younger.

    There must be something more elegant but this seems to work
