I have read post after post after post and can still not get an AGE to calculate when a date is placed in a field. I am EXTREMELY new to this and feel defeated already. I know there are a lot of posts about this, but I am still not grasping it.
I need the age to go into a field titled "AGE" that is calculated from a date of birth field titled "DOB"
I have the current date being automatically filled in when the PDF opens in a field titled "DOS3"
I need some help! I am just a fireman, this is FAR above my pay grade! I am using Adobe Professional 9 (I think).
AGE Calculation Help!

Here's the custom calculation code for AGE (make sure you set DOB to have the Date format):
event.value = "";
dobValue = getField("DOB").value;
if (dobValue!="") {
dob = new Date(dobValue);
now = new Date();
age = now.getFullYear() - dob.getFullYear();
if (now.getMonth() < dob.getMonth())
age--;
else if (now.getMonth()==dob.getMonth() && now.getDate() < dob.getDate())
age--;
event.value = age;
}
event.value = "";
dobValue = getField("DOB").value;
if (dobValue!="") {
dob = new Date(dobValue);
now = new Date();
age = now.getFullYear() - dob.getFullYear();
if (now.getMonth() < dob.getMonth())
age--;
else if (now.getMonth()==dob.getMonth() && now.getDate() < dob.getDate())
age--;
event.value = age;
}

This still is not working. I have two DOB fields, so that when I type a date of birth into one, it copies to another page as well. I named them both "DOB" and made them both MM/DD/YYYY. In my "age" field I set the Action to MOUSE UP, Run a JAVASCRIPT, and pasted your script in.

Are there any error messages in the console?
What do you see in the age field?
