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

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. When I have a look at the matrix I can see the rownames (dates) on the left of the prices but when I call the rownames() function it returns me a NULL value. It worked perfectly until I had to reinstall the RBloomberg

Hi R, Please solve my problem........... I am extracting Bloomberg data from R, in a loop. R is getting fatigued by doing this process and gives some errors. I introduced sleep function. Doing this sometimes I get the results and sometimes not. I even noticed that if I give complete rest for R (don't open R window) for 1 day and then run my code with the sleep function, then the

Dear R help I was hoping you might be able to show me how to write a loop function take would ccomplish this task. library(prob) { a <- sample ( 1:20, 100, replace=T) b<-sample(5:24,100,replace=T) } dd <- data.frame(a,b) dd # code piece I am looking for if(subset(dd,c(1,23,ordered=F))is found))( print subset) else( continue evaluating subsets) subset(dd,isin(dd,c(1,23), ordered =

Hi, I'm trying to get the beginning of my zoo object's index through start (d) but sometimes get an error: Error in start(d): Unused argument (s) (c(NA, 8.792, 8.725, ...) The data(d) is retrieved from Bloomberg through RBloomberg. I am pulling 6 tickers (which means I'm getting 6 columns), and not all of them have data going back to my start date. When I print the

Hello R-Experts, Currently I'm using "RBloomberg" package in R-2.2.1 in Windows machine ( XP).

Dear R Folks, I know that Enrique Bengoechea ( Credit Suisse ) had posted some code snippets for importing Bloomberg historical data into R. I found them to be very useful. Has anyone succeeded in getting the below items from Bloomberg to R? (a) historical economic release data, (b) tick/intra-day data (c) bulk data such as Index membership info, etc. If someone is willing to share their code

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 <-

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! #
