I installed quantmod
getSymbols('NSE:RCOM',src='google')
gives me this error**********************
Error in download.file(paste(google.URL, "q=", Symbols.name, "&startdate=", :
cannot open URL
'http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=NSE:RCOM&startdate=Jan+01,+2007&enddate=Jun+05,+2010&output=csv'
Calls: getSymbols -> do.call -> getSymbols.google -> download.file
In addition: Warning message:
