calculate age from today's date (changes daily) and birthdate

I work at a database involving "client age today" -- How can I get Excel to
calulate this for me when I by provide only the birthdate of the client; keep
in mind 'today's date' changes each day. I don't want past client entry ages
to change once entered, I just want to calculate today's client's age.

I subtracted today from the birthdate, divided by 365 but got fractions
which round up -- making a person older. . .and 'todays' date is going to be
different each day.

Suggestions? Leap year?

Hi

=DATEDIF(start date, end date,"y")
so if birthday is in A1 and todays date in B1 then:
=DATEDIF(A1,B1,"y")

If the date of birth is in B1 and =TODAY() is in A1 then:

=DATEDIF(B1,A1,"y") & " years, " & DATEDIF(B1,A1,"ym") & " months, " &
DATEDIF(B1,A1,"md") & " days"
