Hi, I have posted this same problem in R help but did not get any fruitful
reply. Therefore I am again posting that same thread here as well, hope this
time I will get some efficient reply.

I was trying to dw data from Economagic
[http://www.economagic.com/em-cgi/data.exe/libor/day-ussnon], using
following code :

library(fimport)
dat2 = economagicSeries("libor/day-ussnon", frequency = "daily") 
> tail(dat2)
GMT
           libor/day-ussnon
2008-12-22               NA
2008-12-23               NA
2008-12-24          0.14750
2008-12-29               NA
2008-12-30          0.13875
2008-12-31               NA

Data for 2008-12-31 is given as NA, whereas in the website it is 0·13500.
Does anyone have a better idea on how to download data from Economagic more
efficiently?
