Hi, all I wanted to fetch data from Bloomberg for govt bonds, and analyse it further. I am having trouble in getting data as when I use field=PX_LAST, it is giving the prices but when I use field=CPN, or ISSUE_DT, it is not giving the results and just bouncing back <NA> for that. This is the piece of code: > library(rJava) Warning message: package 'rJava' was built under R version 2.12.1 > library(RBloomberg) &gt...

...ently I'm using "RBloomberg" package in R-2.2.1 in Windows machine ( XP). When I'm running one specific example using blpGetData given in help file I'm getting the following error message. conn <- blpConnect() edb <- blpGetData(conn, "ED1 Comdty", "PX_LAST", start=chron("1/1/06"), end=chron("1/31/06")) The error message: Error in any (origin(chronDate) != orig) : couldn't find function "origin".

...s but when I call the rownames() function it returns me a NULL value. It worked perfectly until I had to reinstall the RBloomberg package. Here is my code: (you need to be connected to bloomberg to run it): conn <- blpConnect(na.action="na") prices <- blp(conn, securirtyNames, "PX_LAST", startDate, endDate) > rownames(prices) NULL any idea of what it could be? What I don't understand is that I can see those rownames on the console... ----- Anna Lippel -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Troubles-on-retrieving-rownames-tp1596990p1596990.html Sent...

To all: I'm using RBloomberg to pull historical equity prices across a range of international markets. Bloomberg defaults to returning stock prices to R in local currency, for example, blpGetData(conn, "ALUA AR Equity", "PX_LAST",start="09/30/08", end="09/30/08") returns a stock price in Argentine Peso's. If ones use the BLPH function directly in Excel to do this pull, you can change the currency base using the CCY parameter set to "USD". How would I do something comparable in R w...

Hello I'm working with a bunch of time series data. The data are downloaded from a server and stored as ascii files prior to reading them into R. After reading the data sets read into R with no problem and I can us the ts function to coerce them to time series, sometimes this works and sometimes it fails. For example. P38_SubB <-
