You don't need a loop, calculate seconds from 1 Jan 0001 to unix epoch start (1 Jan 1970 00:00:00), and save somewhere. Then subtract it from your input, then use any tool available to convert unix timestamp (seconds from 1 Jan 1970) to years, then add 1970. I don't know much VB programming to post a detailed guide.
