You need to know the "day zero" for your particular date format. The default is 1967-12-31. Iconv(InLink.TheDate, "DYMD") will convert into what you've called a Gregorian date with 1967-12-31 converting to 0.

If this is not your day zero, simply take the Iconv() of your day zero and perform simple arithmetic to use your base date.

Look at some of the supplied Transforms that use a base date of 1970-01-01.
