The GREGDT function converts a date in Julian format (year-day) to Gregorian format (year-month-day).
A date in Julian format is a five- or seven-digit number. The first two or four digits are the year; the last three digits are the number of the day, counting from January 1. For example, January 1, 1999 in Julian format is either 99001 or 1999001; June21, 2004 in Julian format is 2004173.
