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

Function "as.COMDate.chron" of the Rbloomberg package doesn't work for that reason. I'm
