   IS> Hi Yohan thanks for your reply. Are you referring to version 270.75

   IS> GMT

timeDate class used to have a @Dim two or three versions ago. As far
as I can see, all references to @Dim have been removed.

the function length.timeDate is defined in v270.75 as :

length.timeDate <- 
    function(x) 
{   
    # A function implemented by Diethelm Wuertz

    # Description:
    #   Gets the length of a 'timeDate' vector

    # Arguments:
    #   x - a 'timeDate' object
    
    # Value:
    #   Returns the lengths of an object of class 'timeDate'.

    # FUNCTION:
    
    # Length:
    ans = length(x at Data)
    
    # Return Value:
    ans
}

as you can see there is no reference to @Dim.

Could you please show us how your length.timeDate looks like.

regards,
Yohan
