yes script can i beleive send messages to thers, your biggest problem is what if they are offline, i think scripts can send emails too so that might be the alternative but with email theres no guarantee the person will check their emails on their birthday. therefore you might encounter problems but hey it is a step in the right direction. the only other thing is maybe the script could utilise the protocals for "windows live call" so you can actually phone through your birthday greeting.

Date input mainly.  MM-dd-YYYY format.

Not listed as dd of MM in the list.

Also, could it be made to where if there is a date inputted when entering a birthday, it automatically makes it the birth year instead of having to check that box every time.

the birth year thing i agree with that does need to be sorted, the time thing well personally i prefer dd/mm/yyyy but perhaps there should be an option to config it to whichever format you prefer.

I tested the script out using my own birthday and when I opened the list t oview all, it showed me as being 18. While this is right at the moment, you should have it say how old they will be on that birthday (ie for me it would say 19, not 18).

Don't know how much I'll use this script even though it does seem like a good idea. Might add some of my own functionality to it :p

I'd rather see current age.  It will change to 19 when you're 19.

hey spunky i agree with jmc after all i find it hard enough to know how old everyone is at present anyways so seeing their current age makes more sense to me too, besides we could always get the age at next birthday added couldnt you and maybe a timer that counts it down in days how long is left to go in the form of mm/dd then you know you got xx amount of months and xx amount of days to sort out that present you wanna get them for next year. and with the ability to set a custom reminder to occur when a persons countdown hits a custom set level you can then know ok gotta get that present on order now so its delivered on time etc.
