[AccessD] Date Diff Help It cant be this hard

They say if it works ugly can be pretty.

My age solution for unbound text box

=Left (((Now ()-[DOB])/365),2)

Anyone have a better or more accurate way to do this?

Tried a different route.

txtAge is unbound control

Data source txtAge=((Now()-[DOB])/365) 

Set decimals to 0 in format

Getting 65.70923 etc

Tied various number formats. The 65 is right in test form.
Can not kill the decimal

What dumb thing did I forget now?

Try doing it in the "on_format" for a header or detail.
