SSN number and age (DDMMYYXXXXX) age?

MayHello,

I have tried to find an answer to my question, but I can not find any good solution. Maybe someone can help me?

Our SSN# is 11 digits and the first six numbers is our birthdate. Eks. DDMMYYXXXXX.

How can I easily find the age from this SSN#? Is it possible?

Is it even possible to find a solution if a person is born March 1. 2001? SSN# will be 010301XXXXX

I am so very greatful for a little help with this challenge

THANK YOU in advance!
🙂

Best regards

Anita

Ah I see, looks like you have a couple of issues going on here, the leading zero dropping and also the year being interpreted as this century. Please see attached, I have had to create a new field in your excel to define the century for each SSN, as you could have a mix in there.

hope that helps

Date(Date#(Left(SSN#,6),'DDMMYY')) as YourDateField

Then if you want age from this, you can just use

Age(today(),Date(Date#(Left(SSN#,6),'DDMMYY'))) as YourAgeField

Thank you for trying to help, but it does not give me the right result..

When the SSN# begins with a '0' the results in age is -.

When the SSN# begins with 1-9, the results is 44 for all the emplyees 🙂

Any other tips?

Maybe the formats then try

Age(Date(today(),'DDMMYY'),Date#(Left(SSN#,6),'DDMMYY'))

failing that post up the example and can then take a better look
