data.

Hi,

 

I am trying to download data from Bloomberg through R. If I try to
download intraday data for multiple tickers and only one field, I get
the error, written below in red. How do I get rid of this error?

 

 

> dat<-blpGetData(conn, c("NOK1V FH Equity","AUA AV Equity"),
"LAST_PRICE",
start=as.chron(as.Date("2006-9-13","%Y-%m-%d")),barfields="VOLUME",
barsize=10,retval="data.frame")

Error in if (typ[n] == "character") { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE
needed

*       blpDisconnect(conn)

 

Thank you,

Shubha.
