Do you really think this is a good idea? I for one would prefer to keep my privacy in this regard. -- Frank Kalis Microsoft SQL Server MVP http://www.insidesql.de Ich unterstütze PASS Deutschland e.V. http://www.sqlpass.de)
and with 7283 members, that would sure be a lot of birthdays to celebrate... 'I reject your reality and substitute my own' - Adam Savage
Come on Frank you can do that...and don't be afraid of hefty bills on your party... it is only for women that we shouldn' ask about their age [8D]. Satya SKJ Moderator http://www.SQL-Server-Performance.Com/forum This posting is provided “AS IS†with no rights for the sake of knowledge sharing.

When you're registering to this forum there is no column asking about birth date, so I believe back to old drawing board and make amendments to initial form in order to get it work.

I just checked the forum setup. There is a place to enter your birthdate, but it won't display it, only your age. I turned in on for fun. I guess if you want to enter your birthdate, you can enter it under one of the other available options, like your interests. My birthdate is 11-19-1957. Ouch! ----------------------------- Brad M.

McGehee, MVP Webmaster SQL-Server-Performance.Com Hi Brad i din't get you on this, how do i enter the b'date and have you planned to flash it for others to see when that day comes.[^]
You can't do this in Snitz, AFAIK. Like Brad said, can you activate a setting "Birthday" or "Age" (have forgotten what it's called). ONce this is activated, when a members opens his profile for editing, he'll see "Birt Date". There you can select your birthday and save this information. However, this birthday will not be shown. Instead of this, will a calculation be shown, that presents the current age in years when someone views the profile. -- Frank Kalis Microsoft SQL Server MVP http://www.insidesql.de Ich unterstütze PASS Deutschland e.V. http://www.sqlpass.de)

This is really a nice idea and i think forum team should implement it and one thing is there that ....... "3363 of 7748 Members have made 40536 posts in 22 forums" provided by forum team only... This clearly means that not all will participate in this idea........ What do you say??????????????? Silicon Master
You'll find this in all communities. There are always much passive members than active ones. I have no idea why this is so, but I think it's easier to lurk in the shadows and just consume what others produce than to step out of the dark and produce something yourself. -- Frank Kalis Microsoft SQL Server MVP http://www.insidesql.de Ich unterstütze PASS Deutschland e.V. http://www.sqlpass.de)
