Hi there,

How are you? I'm having some issues with the following set up:

WINDOWS XP
R-2.7.2
RBloomberg-0.1-10
RDCOMClient-0.92-0
zoo-1.5-4
chron-2.3-24


Bloomberg is installed in the machine. The following code crashes R:


library(RBloomberg)
.bbfields <- blpReadFields('C:\\path\\to\\blp\\API')
conn <- blpConnect( )


I investigated the problem using debug(blpConnect) and found out that the
code dies at the following line of the blpConnect function:

conn[["Timeout"]] <<- timeout;



The above problem occurs whether Bloomberg is running or not, whether the
market is open or not. Any help would be much appreciated.



Regards,
gopi.
