Calculating age groups for athletes

[bstretch]

Dear All

I developed a database for a school athletics team about 6 months ago which they have put to great use and got a lot out of it. It is a relational database, with seperate files for Athlete Information, results, etc.

The date of birth (DOB) of all 170 odd athletes is entered in the database in an appropriate field.

What I need to be able to do, is make a script to take this DOB information and classify athletes into age groups as follows:

Under 13, Under 14, U15, U16, U17 and Opens.

Basically, I want to be able to specify a particular cut-off date (for exampe, 30th May) and have the script work out which age bracket each athlete fits into.

I probably havn't explained this exceptionally well but with any luck someone will know what I'm looking for. If anyone needs more information I'd be more than happy.

I hope someone can help with this issue!

Regards

Ben.

You don't need a script, although you could do it with one. A calculation will do the trick.

OK, thanks Chuck.

I'll give it a go and see if I can modify it to implement the cut-off dates.

Thanks for your help,

Regards

Ben.
