hi James,
I think you have to have a starting date ("origin") for as.Date to
convert numbers to dates.
That's true with the function in the base package, but the zoo package
also has an as.Date() function, which defaults the origin to
"1970-01-01". If James is using zoo his code would be okay. If he's
not, he would have got an error, so I think he must have been.

[1] "numeric"
Should it not be a vector of Date?
