Body
@PHXtrader what you are trying to do is to replace an element in a vector of characters with a xts object which is not what you want to do and does not make sense. To assign a value to a name you have to use the 'assign' function (?assign to get further information). The other error in your code is that you use 'as.xts' instead of only 'xts' . Have a look at this toy example: <pre><code>tickers <- c("AMZN","AAPL") # this is a character object getSymbols("SPY",from="2013-09-01") # this is a xts object for (i in 1:length(tickers)) { assign(tickers[i],xts(order.by = index(SPY))) } </code></pre> the result are 2 xts objects, named AMZN and AAPL with zero-with. <pre><code>>str(AAPL) An 'xts' object of zero-width > AAPL Data: numeric(0) Index: Date[1:9], format: "2013-09-03" "2013-09-04" "2013-09-05" "2013-09-06" "2013-09-09" ... </code></pre> I think a better and safer way to accomplish what you want to do is by using a list ( or sometimes creating a new environment). Creating objects as above tends to lead to bugs that are very difficult to find and debug, these types of constructs lead to accidentally overwriting variables and many other potential errors. The following example avoids a loop and creates the empty objects in a list: <pre><code>tickers <- c("AMZN","AAPL") mylist <- rep(as.list(xts(order.by = index(SPY))),2) # creates 2 empty xts-objects in list names(mylist) <- tickers > str(mylist) List of 2 $ AMZN:An 'xts' object of zero-width $ AAPL:An 'xts' object of zero-width </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
