JULIAN dates

[divingdingo]

hi

I have a spreadsheet with dates associated with each entry. unfortunately each date is in the JULIAN format but doesn't have a year assigned to it.
i.e it is 60, (not 00060 for march 01 2000)

i have the year associated with the JULIAN entry in another column.

is there any way of combining these two columns to produce a dd-mm-yy format entry.

kind thanks

opps, i've just realised that whoever told me my data was in the JULIAN format, got it wrong and i'm really confused (not really a suprise if you knew me!)

okay so i have a column of sequential numbers that relates to the day of the year.

and a column of numbers which relates to the year.

ie

A B (the day they represent)
60 01 1 mar 01
61 01 2 mar 02
62 02 3 mar 02


etc

is there a way of combining these columns to get the format dd-mm-yy ??

thank you

Mark,

How about this. Enter your sequential number in A2, enter 12/31/2007 (end of last year) in B2, and in C2 enter formula =A2+B2, pick your desired Date format.

If you want to convert the list of sequential numbers and see all the dates in the year, paste the list in A2:A367, and use the formula =A2+B$2 (copied from B2:B367)

Cheers!

How about this

=DATE(2000+B1,1,A1)
