Maybe off topic, but it would be nice if it was possible to convert numbers to numbers as well, such as the conversion from 20080810 → 39670 (=2008-08-10 if the cell is formatted as the ISO 8601 date format). I actually have a file with such dates. In my case I formatted the cells like 0000"-"00"-"00 to make it look like dates, but now, a few years later, I realize that there are many advantages by converting them to real dates…

Try:
     =DATE(INT(x/10000);MOD(INT(x/100);100);MOD(x;100))
and then Paste Special back over the original values with "Date & time" ticked and Formulas not ticked?

I trust this helps.
