Happy Birthday Script

Here's another one that I would guess is pretty common, and I hate reinventing wheels. So I wonder if you have one to share, or should I start from the beginning?

I would like to have a script to recognize birthdays for my top layout. It would recognize that we have today's date, and a group of people who have birthdays, and upon opening it would say "Today is John Doe's 29th birthday," if in fact it is. (Otherwise, nothing.)

Is this one already written, sitting in an archive somewhere? If not, would it be easier if the month and day fields were separate from the year?

I'd appreciate any input before starting this. It seems like it should be simple enough, so why can't I get any traction?

I found one jumping off place, a script already written for finding today's birthdays, at databasepros.com
