Is there such a thing as a list of available fields somewhere (for the
tick-func)?
I`m trying to get yields on government securities and swaps, but
on govies "TRADE" returns prices. I can approximate by using RISK/DUR,
but I was hoping there is a field that returns yields instead. "FLDS" on
bloomberg
does not help as mnemonics for realtime fields does not compute with R`s
"tick".

I.e
> tick(pconn,c("912828RR Govt"),c("BID_YLD"),"2012-01-30
15:00:00.0","2012-01-30 15:05:00.0")
Error in .jcall("RJavaTools", "Ljava/lang/Object;", "invokeMethod", cl,  :
  com.bloomberglp.blpapi.InvalidConversionException: Cannot convert String
to Enumeration
