tseries to csv or xls
Using the built in AirPassengers data that comes with R this works:
AP12 <- ts(matrix(AirPassengers[], nc = 12, byrow = TRUE), start(AirPassengers)[1]) colnames(AP12) <- month.abb library(zoo) write.zoo(as.zoo(AP12), sep = ",")

Hi all, is there a common way to write time series objects generated by ?ts() to some .csv or .xls. write.table does not work by default since it expects a data.frame which a ts object is not. Therefore write.table creates a data.frame which basically ignores the rows and columns of ts objects and just saves one big vector. What I want to do is export it, the same way as a ts object is printed on console, like this: ? ? ? ? Qtr1 ? ? ? ?Qtr2 ? ? ? ?Qtr3 ? ? ? ?Qtr4 1990 ?1.80926644 ?1.57801902 -0.06466631 -0.89682263 1991 ?0.38314894 ?0.58986441 ?0.61502833 ?1.55998143 1992 ?1.34689938 -0.61304408 ?2.17411932 ?0.13529151 1993 -0.07747732 ?1.76763799 ?0.37560837 ?0.36530430 1994 -1.03461000 ?0.88674850 ?1.71258524 ?0.79961787 I hope email transmission does not blow the formatting :) Thx for any help in advance matt
