Re: [R-SIG-Finance] timeSeries 2 zoo convert
Following up on what Josh said, does it work with the built-in data set MSFT provided by timeSeries? library(xts) library(timeSeries) data(MSFT) head(MSFT) head(as.xts(MSFT)) head(as.zoo(MSFT)) all give the same dates for me.

Re: [R-SIG-Finance] timeSeries 2 zoo convert
Thanks for the reply. The problem is that when I try to plot the zoo object, I get numbers instead of dates on the x-axis. I manages to correct it with the following function: ConvertTimeFormat - function(x) { require(zoo) require(timeDate) temp-(as.zoo(as.timeSeries(x)) index(temp)-as.Date(index(temp)) return(temp) } Is this a good way to do it?

You create a timeSeries object, only to convert it to zoo, then convert the index from timeDate to Date. Why convert to timeSeries at all, when you essentially destroy all the timeSeries information with later conversions? Seems very unnecessary, but you didn't say what type of object is being passed to your function...
