Friends

I have an xts that I wish to access.

Browse[2]> DATA.ba[[p]]["2012-03-20 00:59:57","bid"]
                       bid
2012-03-20 00:59:57 1.4993

So far so good.

Now putting the index into a variable:

Browse[2]> Time
[1] "2012-03-20 00:59:57 NZDT"
Browse[2]> DATA.ba[[p]][Time, "bid"]
     bid

Where has it gone?


Looking closer....


Browse[2]> index(DATA.ba[[p]]["2012-03-20 00:59:57","bid"])
[1] "2012-03-20 00:59:57 NZDT"
Browse[2]>

Browse[2]> Time
[1] "2012-03-20 00:59:57 NZDT"
Browse[2]>

Browse[2]> index(DATA.ba[[p]]["2012-03-20 00:59:57","bid"]) == Time
[1] FALSE
Browse[2]>

Browse[2]> class(Time)
[1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt"

Browse[2]> class(index(DATA.ba[[p]]["2012-03-20 00:59:57","bid"]))
[1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt"

So the variable 'Time' should be good to index DATA.ba[[p]].  I am
hopelessly confused.
