How can I calculate age at the time of an event in years?

I have the fields for Date of even and date of birth (DOB).  I would like to calculate the age using these and display it in years.  When i use the formula Date-DOB then the time elapsed displays in days.  I have tried to divide by 365 and it will display as the age by followed by days, minutes and seconds.  

Can anyone help me with this?

    You can calculate the age with the following formula:

    ---

    age(DOB)

    ---

    Or - if you have 2 date fields (Date and DOB):

    –––
    year('Date') - year('DOB') - if month('Date') < month('DOB') then
    1
    else
    if month('Date') = month('DOB') and day('Date') < day('DOB') then
    1
    else
    0
    end
    end + " year(s)"
    –––

    I find by doing that you get the age in years, but no decimal places

    I had the same problem and this is how I solved it: 

    field called OR Date = this was a date field for when patient had surgery (the event)

    field called DOB = this was a date field for their date of birth

    let elapsed := today() - 'OR Date';
    age(DOB + elapsed)
