Working out who's Birthday it is


Entered: 29/01/2010 @ 10:03    By: Joel



I spent some time yesterday (much longer than I had original expected it would) to write a quick report to tell us who's birthday was coming up (based on their date of Birth).

Im no genius with MS SQL, but here is what I came up with - which actually worked:

datediff(day, getdate(), dateadd(year, (year(getdate()) - year(DOB)), DOB))


This give the number of days (in the year) to the given persons birthday, and then I ran a quick filter depending on how far in advance we were interested in.
