Thanks for letting me know... I was feeling like all that was wasted. I did get a PM from someone else who is going to try it so maybe that person will post their results as well.
 
It has worked flawlessly on my test board.

I think he was saying he was wondering as well whether or not I got it working.

I did not... I have completely deleted my DEV Site, recreated it, and then placed your code in the files as instructed. Still no luck.  I created another test user with a B-Day of today and it shows up at the bottom of the page.
 
This code is for the SQL version of WWF correct?  I say that because I had another project I was working on that did not work because I had the Access DB code instead SQL.
 
If this is for SQL than do you have any other thoughts?

Ah HA! That is the issue I would think. I have no way to test this for Access I'm sorry. (I left Access a long time ago.) The query could probably be simplified to query the access dbase, I'm thinking the sql for the datepart if what is breaking the script. Again, I'm very sorry, I didn't know it was for Access.
 
But hey, now I have a cool script for my site eh?

Slight miscommunication...

My site is and has been MS SQL.. the other project was using Access DB codes and not SQL so it did not work.  If your code is for SQL then I am still unsure why my site will not work with it.

Give me a few days, I've got Jury duty this month so it is making it difficult to keep up with things I have to do vs things I want to do. I have provisioned a new sub domain for a standard install of wwf 8.03 sql. I will test the script and find the flaws on that install.
 
I should be able to find any holes in the script by doing it this way.

No problem... I have thought about doing a clean slate install and trying the code in a sub-domain as well I just have not gotten to it yet.  My DEV site is a copy of my live site pointed to a copy of my live DB.
 
Not sure if that would cause an issue but I try to make my DEV as close to my site as possible so that testing will be accurate.

Ok... ready for some wierdness?
I have not touched my DEV site since my last post on here and was gonna go back this weekend to see what I could accomplish...  This morning I wake up to an email sent from my server to me stating that an Birthday E-Mail had been sent to a member who's b-day is today.    What changed? Nothing to my knowledge.
 
I wonder if it is because my testing scenario required me to create a new user with their b-day on the same day I was testing?
 
I am not sure what changed or if it was ever broke but it seems to be working now... I think.
