Have you checked that that time exists in the time zone you are using?  From 
?ISOdatetime:

Note
...
Remember that in most timezones some times do not occur and some occur twice because of transitions to/from summer time. What happens in those cases is OS-specific.
You could try working out what your system is using as the transition to/from 
summer time.  (If you need to generate times that are 2 hours after midnight, 
try using ISOdatetime to generate the midnight times and add 2 hours).

On my system, all this works fine:

ISOdatetime(1995,03,26,2,0,0)
[1] "1995-03-26 02:00:00 MST"
ISOdatetime(1995,03,26,0,0,0) + 2 * 60 * 60
[1] "1995-03-26 02:00:00 MST"

Hi All,

I am watching a strange behaviour of ISOdatetime. In my work computer, I get NA when I try to do

[1] NA

But on other dates and/or times (hour) works OK
 > ISOdatetime(1995,03,25,2,0,0)
[1] "1995-03-25 02:00:00 GMT"

In my home computer, I do not have this problem.
I am running the same version of R (2.8.1 patched) on both machines, the same version of Gnu Emacs (22.3.1) and the same version of ESS (5.3.10). Both are running Windows XP. Has anyone experienced this before?

Pedro
