Hi Arno,

I was skeptic, if it is working and I was true: this also has a problem,
when the year is changing:
currentday = 2005-12-22 = 1222
currentday + 14 = 2006-01-06 = 106
So it will list all the people, except the ones, which have birthday. ;-)
I think, I will work with a shadow column (mmdd), which is update by a
trigger and a stored procedure to get the data (because of the year change).
As I said: an easy question (and an easy problem), but not so easy to
develop (in a one-liner).
Thanks all for your input
