Help converting file to XTS
Hard to say without knowing what dat looks like. Can you show us a small sample, perhaps via dput( head( dat)) ? See ?dput, ?head for details. A guess would be that dat is a data frame and not a character string, but ????

Hello there! I am a master student working on my master thesis, and I am
trying to convert some data to xts so I can apply a highfrequency package
to it.
At the moment I am trying to use a POSIXct function. I am quite new at
this program and I am having some issue. The file is attached.
The current coding is:
dat<-read_csv("TEL5minint.csv")
xts(dat,order.by=as.POSIXct(dat),"%d/%m/%Y %H:%M")
And the error is:
Error in as.POSIXct.default(dat) :
do not know how to convert 'dat' to class ?POSIXct?
Any help is appreciated!
Kind Regards
Johannes
