Hello; I am trying following but getting a warning message : Warning in rbind.zoo(...) : column names differ, no matter whatever I do. Also I do not want to specify column names manually, since I am just writing a wrapper function around getSymbols to get chunks of data from various sources - oanda, dividends etc. I tried giving col.names = T/F, header = T/F and skip = 1 but no help.

Dear all Is there any R function that would perform currency conversion using up-to-date exchange rates? I would be looking for a function that allows to download recent exchange rates (say, from Yahoo!) and then use these in converting currencies (say, USD to EUR). I am not sure whether r-sig-finance would be more appropriate, but the (off-)topic feels general enough to me. Thank you Liviu --

Hi, I''m using a webservice in my application. How can I make it so that my application will only try to connect to the webservice for a certain period of time and then give up? Right now my code is using a begin-rescue-else but sometimes I get a "execution expired" error if the webservice is not available or takes too long to respond. Thanks, Peter begin service =

EHLO tc gurus. New to traffic control. Unfortunately, the politicians here in Denmark have decided that a PC is the same as a television set - so anyone owning a PC and internet connection of over 255 kbit/s must pay DKR 2200/year = EUR 300 = USD 400 in television licence fees :-( This is a lot of money for poor students, so we want to offer the students the *option* of limiting their
