DF2FTS(EXPRESSION,FIELD,FROMDATE,TODATE) for historical
DF2FTS(EXPRESSION,FROMDATE) for time series

Gets data from the Bloomberg, calcuates the expression
puts it in a time series, saves the time series for use
with FTSGUI and returns it for use with CHARTFTS

USEAGE:
% not that you'd want to calculate this...

% historical
myfts=df2fts( ...
'exp(2 * GT5 Govt -GT10 Govt - GT2 Govt)', ...
'BidYield',today-40.*365.25,today);

% or time series

myfts=df2fts( ...
'log(2 * GT5 Govt -GT10 Govt - GT2 Govt)', ...
today);

Then you can use

chartfts(myfts);

%or

ftsgui;
% now load myfts"

IT'S NOT FANCY, BUT IT WORKS
