How to calculate age (in years) based on Date of Birth and getDate()

Question

I have a table listing people along with their date of birth (currently a nvarchar(25))

How can I convert that to a date, and then calculate their age in years?

Answer 1

You need to consider the way the datediff command rounds.

SELECT CASE WHEN dateadd(year, datediff (year, DOB, getdate()), DOB) > getdate()
            THEN datediff(year, DOB, getdate()) - 1
            ELSE datediff(year, DOB, getdate())
       END as Age
FROM 
Which I adapted from here.
Note that it will consider 28th February as the birthday of a leapling for non-leap years e.g. a person born on 29 Feb 2020 will be considered 1 year old on 28 Feb 2021 instead of 01 Mar 2021.
