DateDiff - Years 7

[SBerthold]

What is the fastest/easiest method in VB to accurately determine the number of years between two dates?

I noticed that there seems to be an error in the DateDiff function because if the first date is 12/31/2001 and the second date is 1/1/2002, the datediff return 1 year, even though actual time passed is only 1 day!

Doing a search in this forum on datediff brings up too many results - if someone could please supply me an answer here or point me to a good link in this forum.

There was a good explanation (by CClint) that you may find relatated in a tread I posted a short while ago called "Dynamic Age Calc" (Sorry I've not worked out how to short cut to the thread yet).
