You can get a rough approximation with a calculated field such as { = { DATE
\@ yyyy } - 1992 }. This will roll over on January 1, obviously, rather than
the actual anniversary date. If Word could handle serial dates (number of
days since January 1, 1900) or even days of the year 1-365, more precision
would be possible.

Is it possible to format an annually incrementing number in a Word.doc so
that, ie, "Joe has 15 years of experience" automatically updates
(increments)
to "Joe has 16 years of experience", one year after a specified date.
This
would allow years of service to be embedded in resumes maintenance-free,
as
well as enable corp comm groups to keep their company history texts up to
date, and a host of other applications. Same goes for monthly, bi-annual,
semi-monthly, etc.
