How to calculate age in T-SQL with years, months, and days

Question

What would be the best way to calculate someone\'s age in years, months, and days in T-SQL (SQL Server 2000)?

The datediff function doesn\'t handle year

Answer 1

Quite Old question, but I want to share what I have done to calculate age

    Declare @BirthDate As DateTime
Set @BirthDate = '1994-11-02'

SELECT DATEDIFF(YEAR,@BirthDate,GETDATE()) - (CASE 
WHEN MONTH(@BirthDate)> MONTH(GETDATE()) THEN 1 
WHEN MONTH(@BirthDate)= MONTH(GETDATE()) AND DAY(@BirthDate) > DAY(GETDATE()) THEN 1 
Else 0 END)
