Subject: subtracting two dates
I did some searching from the archive but unfortunately I got nothing related to what I want.
Dates when employees were hired were recorded in this form: mm/dd/yyyy.. From that I want to compute the number of years since employees were hired. I am thankful if somebody would help provide a syntax.
