I have R 2.7.2, RBloomberg 0.1-10, RDCOMclient 0.92-0 RDCOMClient, chron, zoo, stats: these packages load OK.

Hi guys, I am using the blp() function from RBloomberg package which returns a matrix of prices with the columns corresponding to the security name and the columns to the date.

Together with Enrique's running start and Prasad's work, we figured out how to get tick data and bulk data from Bloomberg into R. Here is a code snippet which builds on Enrique's. ---------------------------- require("RDCOMClient") blCon <<- try(blCon <- COMCreate("Bloomberg.Data.1"), silent=TRUE) # Always check the class of blCon before proceeding! #
