| I need to get a listing of all persons who are atleast 18 years of age. A date of birth field in the database is in this format:4/25/2008 12:00:00 AMMy solution would be where the difference between the current date and the dob is >= 18.I tried...select * from table where datediff(yy,dob,getdate)) >= 18.But this only seems to subtract the years and ignore the days/months, which I need. Could anyone provide the syntax I need?Help is appreciated. Thanks. |
