Convert Day of the Year in Excel?

How can I convert Day of the Year to a mm/dd format in Excel?

Date of the Year: e.g. 1= Jan 1, 177 = June 27.

For example, how do I convert "177" to 6/27?

Add 41274 to it =A1+41274 and then

Right click - Format Cells - custom and type in mmm dd or mmmm dd if you want the month name.

This will work for year 2013 because Jan 01, 2013 is 41,274 days after Jan 01, 1900

For numbers greater than 59 (31+28), the answer is different for leap year and non-leap year.  To get the answers for the current year, put

=DATE(YEAR(TODAY()), 1, A1)

in a helper column and format as you wish.  To use some other year, use

=DATE(yyyy, 1, A1)
