    Dim Datestart As Long

    Dim p As Period
    p = DateUtils.PeriodBetween(Datestart,DateTime.Now)
    Log(p.Years&" Years, "&p.Months&" months, "&p.Days&" days")

You can write it a bit shorter if you want...

B4X:

Dim p As Period = DateUtils.PeriodBetween(DateTime.DateParse("12/19/1968"),DateTime.Now)
    Log(p.Years&" Years, "&p.Months&" months, "&p.Days&" days")

ATTN: to be "safe" on calculating women age the above formula should be changed to:

Dim p As Period = DateUtils.PeriodBetween(DateTime.DateParse("12/19/1968"),DateTime.Add(DateTime.Now,-10,0,0))

Sorry, I couldn't resist
