Anna, Try omitting pkg:RBloomberg. If you really need to use that package, you will have to install the non-CRAN package RDCOMClient from omegahat. I still don't see why toString() wouldn't do its job, even with RBloomberg loaded. -Peter Ehlers anna wrote: Here is the list of the loaded

I don't think that rJava has a toString function. It does use the function in base. I see a function toString.XMLNode() in the XML package which is used as toString(x), so maybe that's where your problem lies; but I didn't see the XML package in your list of attached packages. Anyway, here are
