1.) It says: First, open a new sheet, and enter the word “Birthday:” in cell A1 of your table, in cell B2 enter “Your Age:”

It should say: First, open a new sheet, and enter the word “Birthday:” in cell A1 of your table, in cell A2 enter “Your Age:”

It says “B2″ but should be “A2″.

2.) The formula is wrong, it is: =DATEDIF(B1,NOW),”Y”)&” Years,”& DATEDIF(B1,NOW(),”YM”)&” Months, “& DATEDIF(B1,NOW(),”MD”)& ” Days”

It should be: =DATEDIF(B1,NOW(),”Y”)&” Years,”& DATEDIF(B1,NOW(),”YM”)&” Months, “& DATEDIF(B1,NOW(),”MD”)& ” Days”

Opening Parentheses on the first instance of “NOW, is missing.
