Default Converting text to dates

Hi -

I'm trying to convert a simple value of 7152004 to a date, and can't seem to
figure it out. When I format cells to date, I get a long #### response, and
I'm not getting that b/c of the column size. I've tried to do DATEVALUE on
the cell, but it gives a VALUE! error. Any suggestions? Thanks!
