I want the years since a date and today. I tried this function:

Your first argument is 7 divided by 16 divided by 2,012. This is approximately 0.00022,
representing - as a date and time - nineteen seconds after midnight on the date origin. So I'd
expect the result to be 115. But in any case it won't have anything to do with a date in July
2012.
The arguments of YEARS() need to be numeric dates, so I think you need something like
=YEARS(DATE(2012,7,16),TODAY(),1)
or
=YEARS(DATEVALUE("7/16/2012"),TODAY(),1)
I trust this helps.

I tried:
=YEARS(DATE(2012,7,16),TODAY(),1)
I still get "1900".
The cell format is YYYY.
