Douglas,

<< 
   if daysOld < 0 then
     put abs(daysOld) into daysOld
     subtract 1 from monthsOld
   end if
>>

This worked for the dates I tried; however I see now it is not always 
correct: someone born on January 31, 2004 would show an age of 29 
days on February 2, 2004 instead of 2 days.

Let me see what it takes to deal with this...
