Hello R-Expert,


 Recently I was using "RBloomberg" package in R-2.2.0 in Windows (XP)
machine installing the required packages. I checked one example using
blpGetData guided in corresponding help file: 


conn <- blpConnect()

edb <- blpGetData(conn, "ED1 Comdty", "PX_LAST", start=chron("1/1/06"),
end=chron("1/31/06"))

 

I got error message as following:

The error message: Error in any (origin (chronDate)! = orig): couldn't
find function "origin".



Then I installed package "calibrate". I tried the same example ignoring
"start=chron("1/1/01")" and end=chron("1/31/06").The result was:

 

ED1 Comdty   PX_LAST

95.1125

But when I tried the same with "start=chron("1/1/01")" installing the
package "calibrate". I got followings catching edb:

 

 

ED1                             Comdty           PX_LAST

(02/23/06 17:53:57)                            NA

 

 


I want to get all values of PX_LAST within 1/1/01 and 1/31/06 instead of
getting NA on the date I am working.Any help regarding this is
appreciated in advance.



Thanks,


Samik Sen
