10,000 day calendar help

Is there a web site with a magic decoder ring to transform from the 10,000 day calendar into mnth/day/yr?
who has the free decoder ring?

The only website that had that info (lightningjar.com) has been shutdown for some time.

Galen's White Books have the '67-'74 decoder.

I think I have it. The first day in the 10,000 day calendar is July 29, 1961. If you use an Excel spreadsheet function 'datevalue' it returns the serial number of July 28, 1961 (the day before) as 22490. With July 29, 1961 being 0001, if you add this to 22490 and use the Excel 'month', 'day', and 'year' functions, you get 7, 29, 1961 respectively. I tried this with some dates from the 1970 parts book and if you add the 10,000 day date to 22490 and apply the Excel functions, you get agreement every time.

Here is an xls worksheet I did in 2003. You will need Excel to use it.

Wow!! Neat

For us "Office challenged" can you explain how to use the worksheet?

Type the 10,000 day calendar date in cell A4 and press 'enter'.
