Converting Legacy Date Fields

Does anyone know how to convert dates that are in the form YYJJJ, (where
YY= year and JJJ = Julian date) into something that Oracle likes, such
as "MMDDYY"?  Here's my challenge: I'm migrating mainframe legacy data
into Oracle tables using SQL*Loader.  The date field blows up on me, so
I need to somehow convert it during the loading process.



Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.
