Default Show numberic coded date as a proper date within format cells

Hello,

I have a date coded as a numeric value like 1131212, which is equivalent to 2013/12/12 or 1150313, which is equivalent to 2015/03/13. I want to display this coded date in human readable date format. Is it possible to transcode it without an additional cell using format/cell?

I could transform it with an additional cell like =TEXT(K5+19000000;"0000-00-00"), but I do not want to have a second cell to transform this special numeric date value.

Gerik

write 1.000.000 in an empty cell = copy this cell = select your dates
= Paste Special = Substract
Then select your dates = TextToColumns = Fixed Width = Next = Next
= Date YMD = Finish
