When I try to convert the zoo object to a timeSeries object, which would
allow me to utilize Rmetrics packages, I get an error message. 

 

> Data<-read.zoo("c:\\DOWUBSPRICING.txt,na.strings="NA",sep="\t",header=T)

> is(Data)

"zoo"

> as.timeSeries.zoo(Data)

Error in .local (.Object, . )

 

Is this happening because I am using daily data? Originally, I was trying to
import the data as a timeSeries, but could not overcome problems with the
date configuration. I tried to create a zoo object with the intention of
converting it into a timeSeries. 

My apologies if this is too basic a question, but I am new to R and have
been struggling with this problem. 

 

The object in question contains daily adjusting closing price data.

Your help is greatly appreciated!!
