title: Trouble creating multiple time series object in R
body: <p>I have a pretty simple CSV / data frame with 5 time series that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>date ts1 ts2 ts3 ts4 ts5
  2000  1   4   6   10   3
  2001  4   11  4   8    4
  2002  7   23  5   9    15
  2003  8   8   3   10   8
  2004  3   9   1   9    7
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am trying to turn this into a "MTS" object, such that I can use the R package, VARS. I am very new to R, have been googling and cannot seem to find an easy way. There must be one line of code or something in an import statement that does this for me? </p>
  
  <p>I have reviewed the VARS vignette and there is nothing in there. <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/vars/vignettes/vars.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/vars/vignettes/vars.pdf</a> </p>
  
  <p>Thank you for the help.</p>
