Thank you for you reply,

i am a novice when it comes to CRAN R, i haven't looked much outside
rMetrics so far.
My recurring problem is daily financial data of different length, the
procedure you
describe below are two separate ways to align timeseries or should it be
done as one
command? If it has to be done in two stages as you describe it is a very
time consuming
way to handle all the financial data that, i guess anyone, would put to use
in finance R.

Kind regards
