Bloomberg Import DateTime Error

[dhanna]

When importing a Bloomberg series (sibf1m index) I get a error message stating: "Bloomberg library error: "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime".

The series should be values (one month interest rates). Why is the import assuming the string is DateTime? How can I fix this? Thanks!

Make sure you running the latest version of EViews. Goto Help->EViews Update to check to see if you have the latest version. I believe this problem was fixed in a patch released in January 2015.

I'm using the April 27, 2015 Enterprise Build. Still can't pull in Bloomberg INDEX series because of the DateTime error
