I have a simple question. I am trying to load data into a zoo object. I have
the data in CSV format as follows

SYMBOL DATE             TIME              PRICE
XX            YYYYMMDD HH:MM:SS      n.nn

and there are multiple symbols in this one data frame.

My question is, do I need to merge DATE and TIME before loading them or can
I specify multiple index.column or index.name fields?

index.column in read.zoo is a single column only

you can either merge in your CVS format, simplifying things in R, or use read.table to get the data into R and then merge your index columns when you call as.zoo.
